Abstract
A first node selects a selection node that is the send source of a packet with the highest received radio wave intensity from among packets received from a plurality of second node. The first node sends, to the selection node, a report packet that stores therein an identifier that specifies each of a plurality of first nodes and whose destination is a third node. The second node adds an identifier that specifies each of the plurality of second nodes to the report packet that was received from the first node with the received radio wave intensity that is equal to or greater than a predetermined value among the report packets which are transmitted by the plurality of first nodes and relays the report packet to the third node. The third node detects a node corresponding to the identifier that is not included in the report packets received.
