Abstract:
Communication systems and communication control methods are disclosed. In one example, a slave device belonging to a group of devices to which arbitration is applicable sequentially transmits a start bit and a first address including a first bit having a value different from a corresponding first bit of predetermined pattern data. A master device sequentially transmits the start bit and the predetermined pattern data. The master device arbitrates the master device and the first slave device based on the value of the first bit.

Claim (Index 15):
A slave device comprising:\n a communication circuitry configured to sequentially transmit a start bit and an address that includes a first bit, wherein inclusion or non-inclusion in a group for which arbitration is necessary is set according to the first bit, wherein a master device separate from the slave device is configured to transmit a start bit and an predetermined pattern including a first bit, wherein, when a first bit value of the address is different from the first bit of the predetermined pattern data in an arbitration, it is determined that an event for which arbitration is necessary has occurred, and wherein the address of the slave device is allocated as a first address or a second address based upon setting information, wherein a first bit of the first address indicates inclusion in the group for which arbitration is necessary and a first bit of the second address indicates non-inclusion in the group for which arbitration is necessary.
