Abstract
A communication relay device is assigned with a specific slot in a communication schedule divided into a plurality of time slots. The communication relay device includes: a communication controller that switches a state between an active state and a sleep state and performs communication in the active state; and a slot determiner that determines arrival of a specific slot and arrival of a relay slot that is a time slot assigned to another lower-layer communication relay device. The communication controller changes to the active state and performs a predetermined communication process if the slot determiner determines arrival of the specific slot, and changes to the active state and performs a relay process if the slot determiner determines arrival of the relay slot.
