Original Abstract Submitted

A reception device according to an aspect of the present disclosure includes: a sensor configured to receive a signal from a detection range represented by a range of a reception direction; an actuator configured to change the detection range in such a way that a search direction included in a search range wider than the detection range is included in the detection range for at least a predetermined time; at least one memory storing a set of instructions; and at least one processor configured to execute the set of instructions to: detect reception of the signal; and specify a reception direction in which the signal is received.
