AI Technical Summary
Technical Problem
Existing illumination systems face a decrease in communication reliability due to burst traffic when multiple sensor devices transmit control commands simultaneously.
Method used
The system divides sensor devices into two or more control groups with different specific periods, allowing them to transmit control commands at staggered times, reducing simultaneous transmissions and minimizing burst traffic.
Benefits of technology
This approach suppresses the decrease in communication reliability by ensuring controlled devices receive commands without overwhelming the communication network, maintaining system stability.

Abstract
The objective of this disclosure is to suppress the decline in the reliability of communications. [Solution] The device control system S1 comprises a plurality of sensor devices B1 and a communication device D1 capable of communicating with the plurality of sensor devices B1. The plurality of sensor devices B1 are divided into two or more control groups, each with a different set of specific time periods. Each of the plurality of sensor devices B1 is associated with at least one controlled device. Each of the plurality of sensor devices B1 transmits a control command to the communication device D1 for controlling at least one controlled device during the specific time period set for the control group to which each of the plurality of sensor devices B1 is divided among the two or more control groups.
