Abstract: A voice transmission apparatus includes a jitter absorbing buffer unit provided in the receiving unit and which absorbs a transmission delay in the packets, and a transmission wait control unit provided in a transmitting unit and which links a packet to be transmitted when transmission temporarily breaks down to a queue. A transmission wait control unit 15 includes an accumulated time computing unit 18 that computes the accumulated time of voice data in packets linked to a queue 19. The transmission wait control unit 15 extracts an oldest linked packet from the queue 19 and discards the same so that the accumulated time computed by the accumulated time computing unit 18 becomes equal to or less than a threshold in order to continuously link a new packet to the queue 19, thereby equalizing the threshold to an accumulation time of a jitter absorbing buffer unit 21.

Abstract: To facilitate selection of broadcast data which was multiplexed on broadcast programs and was broadcast. A mobile terminal device has a digital broadcast receiving means for receiving broadcast data which was multiplexed on broadcast programs and was broadcast further has a controlling means for setting the mobile terminal device to a state so as to utilize the usable data when selecting, then instructing execution of viewing history data linked with usable data by an operating means.

Abstract: The present invention provides mobile communication equipment (10) having a communicating unit (11) for communicating with a server and interface units (13, 14) removably connected to a storage unit (12) provided with an unique media ID, wherein the mobile communication equipment includes a controlling unit (15) for controlling the communicating unit and the storage unit so as to communicate with the server using the communicating unit; transmit the media ID which is unique to the storage unit and obtained from the storage unit via the interface unit and a content ID corresponding to an encrypted content to the server; receive unique information which is unique to the content ID and the media ID and necessary for decrypting the encrypted content not to be stored in the mobile communication equipment from the server; and store the unique information in the storage unit via the interface unit.

Abstract: Information that is no longer valid due to the passage of time is not provided to a user. When a stock price information server acquires updated stock price information from a securities market network, a message that instructs that a predetermined application be started up and to which a term of validity has been attached is sent to a user terminal over a paging channel via an SMS server. When the user terminal receives the message, it determines whether or not the message is within the term of validity, and if it determines that the message is within the term of validity, starts up the instructed application from among a plurality of applications that are stored. The stock price information server then sends to the user terminal the stock price information that is requested by the started up application.

Abstract: When data has been received by a sending and reception unit, a transmission control unit generates an ACK and outputs it to an ACK reduction unit. A reception interval measuring unit detects a time interval in the data which is received, and starts ACK reduction process by the ACK reduction unit if this time interval is greater than or equals to a first predetermined value. In this case, the ACK reduction unit reduces the number of ACKs which are transmitted via the sending and reception unit. An ACK interval measuring unit detects a time interval of generating ACKs by the transmission control unit, and stops the ACK reduction process by the ACK reduction unit if this time interval is greater than or equals to a second predetermined value.
