An input unit inputs detected information that has been acquired by a sensor. By inserting time information into the detected information that has been input, a multiplexer generates an information sequence in which the detected information and the time information are multiplexed in a time-dividing manner. A transmission unit transmits the information sequence. The time information in the multiplexer is used to synchronize timing between detected information included in an information sequence transmitted from another transmitter and the detected information in the multiplexer.
