In a case of transmitting data by using wireless communication, the control unit performs control of performing transmission while including determination information with which a device in a transmission destination of the data determines in a data link layer whether to pass the data to a higher layer of the data link layer into the data. Also, in a case of receiving data by using wireless communication, the control unit performs control of determining whether to pass the data to a higher layer of a data link layer on the basis of information included in the data (determination information that can be grasped in data link layer).
