Abstract
This reduces power consumption when relaying data to multiple communication devices using different communication methods. [Solution] The wireless relay device includes a relay communication unit capable of relaying data using a first communication method and a second communication method, a storage unit that stores device information capable of identifying the communication methods of a plurality of communication devices received by the relay communication unit, and a determination unit that, upon receiving data from a communication device that transmits data, determines whether or not to convert the communication method of the second communication device based on the distance between the first communication device that uses the same communication method as the communication device that transmits data and the second communication device that uses a different communication method than the communication device that transmits data.
