1. A communication device for communicating with another device in each of time divisions defined by shared time that is shared with the another device, the communication device comprising:
processing circuitry
to measure the shared time;
to acquire, from the another device, error information about a first error of the another device in measuring the shared time; and
to specify, to the another device, a suspension duration at least at a start or at an end of each of the time divisions, the suspension duration being a duration for which the another device suspends data transmission, wherein
the specified suspension duration is greater than or equal to a greater error of the first error and a second error that is an error of the processing circuitry in time measurement.
