Abstract
The server is disposed in transport equipment having a plurality of seats and is capable of communicating with at least three radio communication devices and an input/output terminal. The server has a signal-intensity receiver, a storage, and a controller. The signal-intensity receiver receives signal-intensity information on radio waves of an external device. The storage stores first position data indicating a position corresponding to each of the radio communication devices, and second position data indicating a position corresponding to the input/output terminal. The controller receives a connection request for communicating between the radio communication devices and the external device. The controller estimates a position of the external device based on the signal-intensity information and the first position data, determines a connection priority of the external device based on the estimated position and the second position data, and transmits a connectable-device list based on the connection priority to the input/output terminal.
