PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a receiving device capable of easily and accurately setting channels.SOLUTION: A receiving device 30 can make radio communication with a plurality of transmitting devices 20 sending signals including biological information via different channels, and has a receiving part 32 and a control part 35. The receiving part 32 receives the signals from the respective transmitting devices 20 while switching the channels. The control part 35 determines the channel having the most intensive signal among a plurality of signals received by the receiving part 32, and sets the determined channel as a monitoring channel for monitoring the biological information afterward.COPYRIGHT: (C)2014,JPO&INPIT【課題】チャネルを簡単かつ正確に設定できる受信装置を提供する。【解決手段】受信装置30は、異なるチャネルを通じて生体情報を含む信号を送信する複数の送信装置20と無線通信可能であり、受信部32と制御部35とを有する。受信部32は、チャネルを切り換えつつ、各送信装置20から信号を受信する。制御部35は、受信部32により受信された複数の信号のうち、強度が最も高い信号のチャネルを判定し、判定したチャネルを以後に生体情報を監視する監視チャネルとして設定する。【選択図】図1
