SYSTEM, COMMUNICATIONS NODE, AND DETERMINING METHOD
First Claim
1. A system comprising:
- a plurality of communications nodes, respectively having a sensor; and
a communications apparatus configured to simultaneously request the plurality of communications nodes to transmit sensor data, whereina first communications node among the plurality of the communications nodes, when determining that among a first state where the communications apparatus includes the first communications node when requesting transmission and a second state where the communications apparatus excludes the first communications node when requesting transmission, the first communications node is in the second state;
determines whether a predetermined difference is present between a predetermined value and the sensor data of the first communications node, andtransmits a notification signal that notifies the communications apparatus of the predetermined difference, when determining that the predetermined difference is present.

Abstract
A system includes communications nodes, respectively having a sensor; and a communications apparatus that simultaneously requests the communications nodes to transmit sensor data. A first communications node among the communications nodes, when determining that among a first state where the communications apparatus includes the first communications node when requesting transmission and a second state where the communications apparatus excludes the first communications node when requesting transmission, the first communications node is in the second state: determines whether a predetermined difference is present between a predetermined value and the sensor data of the first communications node, and transmits a notification signal that notifies the communications apparatus of the predetermined difference, when determining that the predetermined difference is present.

9. A first communications node included among a plurality of communications nodes that respectively have a sensor, the first communications node comprising:
-
a control circuit configured to determine whether a predetermined difference is present between a predetermined value and sensor data of the first communications node, the sensor data being received from a second communications node among the plurality of the communications nodes, when among a first state where a communications apparatus that simultaneously requests the plurality of communications nodes to transmit the sensor data includes the first communications node when requesting transmission and a second state where the communications apparatus excludes the first communications node when requesting transmission, the first communications node is in the second state; and a transmitting circuit configured to wirelessly transmit a notification signal that notifies the communications apparatus of the predetermined difference when the control circuit determines that the predetermined difference is present. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12)

13. A determining method of a plurality of communications nodes respectively having a sensor, the method comprising:
-
determining, by each communications node among the plurality of communications nodes, whether a predetermined difference is present between sensor data of the communications node and a predetermined value, when among a first state where a communications apparatus that simultaneously requests the plurality of communications nodes to transmit the sensor data includes the communications node when requesting transmission and a second state where the communications apparatus excludes the communications node when requesting transmission, the communications node is in the second state; and wirelessly transmitting, by each communications node among the plurality of communications nodes, a notification signal that notifies the communications apparatus of the predetermined difference, when the predetermined difference is present.
