1. A terminal device comprising:

  • a received signal strength acquiring unit that receives a signal transmitted from a plurality of electronic devices and acquires an electric field strength of the received signal as a first received signal strength indicator (RSSI) value;

    a device selection processing unit that selects an electronic device to be a target for connection from the plurality of electronic devices in accordance with a normalized electric field strength that is a value obtained by normalizing the electric field strength of the received signal using a parameter corresponding to and unique to an electronic device that transmits the received signal; and

    a connecting unit that establishes a connection with the electronic device selected at the device selection processing unit;

    wherein;

    the parameter is a second RSSI value when a signal transmitted from an electronic device corresponding to the parameter is received at a location a predetermine distances apart from the electronic device; and

    the normalized electric field strength is a value obtained by subtracting the second RSSI value from the first RSSI value.
