1. A centralized Media Access Control (MAC)-based device, comprising:
- a path setting unit to set a communication path to each of a corresponding device and a piconet coordinator (PNC);
a path determination unit to determine whether the communication paths are available;
a path selection unit to select any one of the communication paths based on a result of the determination; and
a data transceiving unit to transceive data via the selected communication path.
