Abstract
A communication device includes: a first communication unit that performs communication with another communication device using a first communication scheme that enables communication in a first range. The first communication unit performs, when having determined that the other communication device received transmitted certain information, communication with the other communication device in a second range that is different from the first range and in which the other communication device is capable of receiving the certain information. The communication device relays communication from the other communication device to another device disposed outside the second range.
