Abstract
The present technology relates to a communication device and a control method, in which the variety of connection modes between electronic apparatuses can be increased. Provided are: a detection target mechanism detected when the first electronic apparatus is connected to a second electronic apparatus that receives a baseband signal output from the first electronic apparatus; a connection detecting unit adapted to detect a baseband signal output from the second electronic apparatus and to detect a connection between the first and second electronic apparatuses; and a control unit adapted to connect the detection target mechanism to the first electronic apparatus where a connection between the first electronic apparatus and the second electronic apparatus is detected by the connection detecting unit. The present technology is applicable to, for example, a scenario in which a universal serial bus (USB) host recognizes connection to a USB device.
