Abstract
A communication system includes a controller, a plurality of devices, and a communication channel to which the controller and the plurality of devices are connected in a ring, and over which a communication frame including a plurality of packets is transmitted as differential signals. Each device monitors a data transmission amount per unit time, and is configured to determine whether or not the monitored data transmission amount exceeds a threshold value, and insert data into one of the packets in the communication frame when the monitored data transmission amount is equal to or less than the threshold value.
