Abstract:
Provided is a highly convenient communication device capable of detecting a communication error caused by an abnormality of a state of communication. A communication device capable of mutually communicating with an electrical device includes: a superimposed signal receiving unit that periodically receives a data signal related to the electrical device as a signal superimposed on an operation signal; a period determination unit that determines whether or not a communication error of the data signal detected by the superimposed signal receiving unit is able to be regarded as having occurred in a transition period of a value of the operation signal; and a state determination unit that determines a state of communication with the electrical device in accordance with the determination by the period determination unit.

Claim (Index 6):
The communication device according to  claim 1 , further comprising:\n a transition period start detection unit that detects a start of the transition period, wherein the period determination unit regards a predetermined period from the start of the transition period as the transition period and determines whether or not the communication error is able to be regarded as having occurred in the transition period, and the state determination unit determines that no problem has occurred in the state of the communication with the electrical device in a case in which the period determination unit regards the communication error as having occurred in the transition period.
