Abstract

A system includes an IP communication unit that communicates by IP communication, a non-IP communication unit that communicates by non-IP communication for which a transmittable data size is smaller than the transmittable data size for IP communication, and a controller that controls a switching between communication by the IP communication unit and communication by the non-IP communication unit, such that communication is performed by non-IP communication in a case in which a size of data to transmit is equal to or less than a predetermined first size, and communication is performed by IP communication in the case in which the size of the data to transmit is greater than the first size.

Claims (39)

1. A system comprising:

a first processor programmed to communicate by IP communication;

a second processor programmed to communicate by non-IP communication for which a transmittable data size is smaller than a transmittable data size for IP communication;

a third processor programmed to control a switching between communication by the first processor and communication by the second processor, such that communication is performed by non-IP communication in a case in which a size of data to transmit is equal to or less than a predetermined first size, and communication is performed by IP communication in the case in which the size of the data to transmit is greater than the first size;

a first detection device including a first detector that detects a first event and the second processor that transmits data related to the first event detected by the first detector to an external device; and

a second detector that detects a second event, wherein

in a case in which the data related to the first event detected by the first detector is larger than the first size, the third processor activates the first processor and causes the first processor to transmit data related to the second event detected by the second detector to the external device.

2. The system according to claim 1 , wherein

an International Mobile Equipment Identity of the first processor is different from an International Mobile Equipment Identity of the second processor.

3. The system according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a second detection device integrating the second detector and the first processor that transmits the data related to the second event detected by the second detector to the external device, wherein

in a case in which the data related to the first event detected by the first detector is larger than the first size, the third processor activates the second detection device and causes the second detection device to transmit the data related to the second event detected by the second detector to the external device.

4. The system according to claim 2 , further comprising:

a second detection device integrating the second detector and the first processor that transmits the data related to the second event detected by the second detector to the external device, wherein

in a case in which the data related to the first event detected by the first detector is larger than the first size, the third processor activates the second detection device and causes the second detection device to transmit the data related to the second event detected by the second detector to the external device.

5. The system according to claim 1 , wherein

an International Mobile Equipment Identity of the first processor is the same as an International Mobile Equipment Identity of the second processor,

a control plane and a user plane are used in a case of communicating by IP communication, and

only the control plane is used in a case of communicating by non-IP communication.

6. The system according to claim 5 , wherein

the first processor performs communication based on a Fourth Generation (4G) or a Fifth Generation (5G) standard, performing communication based on the 4G standard in a case in which the size of the data to transmit is equal to or less than a predetermined second size that is greater than the first size, and performing communication based on the 5G standard in a case in which the size of the data to transmit is greater than the second size.

7. The system according to claim 5 , wherein

in a case of performing communication based on a 5G standard, the first processor varies a channel capacity by varying a strength of electric power.

8. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program causing a computer to execute a process for communicating,

the computer being connected to:

a first processor that communicates by IP communication;

a first detection device including

a first detector that detects a first event; and

a second processor that (i) communicates by non-IP communication for which a transmittable data size is smaller than a transmittable data size for IP communication and (ii) transmits data related to the first event detected by the first detector to an external device; and

a second detector that detects a second event,

the process comprising:

switching between communicating by IP communication and communicating by non-IP communication for which the transmittable data size is smaller than the transmittable data size for IP communication, such that communication is performed by IP communication in a case in which a size of data to transmit is greater than a predetermined first size, and communication is performed by IP communication in a case in which the size of the data to transmit is equal to or less than the first size such that, in a case in which data related to the first event detected by the first detector is larger than the first size, the first processor is activated and the first processor is caused to transmit data related to the second event detected by the second detector to the external device.

9. A system comprising:

IP communicating means for communicating by IP communication;

non-IP communicating means for communicating by non-IP communication for which a transmittable data size is smaller than a transmittable data size for IP communication;

controlling means for controlling a switching between communication by the IP communicating means and communication by the non-IP communicating means, such that communication is performed by non-IP communication in a case in which a size of data to transmit is equal to or less than a predetermined first size, and communication is performed by IP communication in the case in which the size of the data to transmit is greater than the first size;

first detection means including a first detector that detects a first event and the non-IP communicating means that transmits data related to the first event detected by the first detector to an external device; and

second detection means that detects a second event, wherein

in a case in which the data related to the first event detected by the first detector is larger than the first size, the controlling means activates the IP communicating means and causes the IP communicating means to transmit the data related to the second event detected by the second detection means to the external device.
