Abstract: A transmitter apparatus transmits transfer data having a predetermined amount to a receiver apparatus. The apparatus includes a data packet generating section dividing the transfer data into multiple divisional data sets; an error detection/correction code adding section adding an error detection code (error detection information) by which an error in the divisional data sets is detected to each of the divisional data sets; and a transmitter section transmitting the multiple divisional data sets to which the error detection code is added all together. Thus, data transfer is very reliable. It takes less time to transfer data.

This annular protrusion has an outer diameter greater than the incircle diameter of the polygonal enlarged recess. The annular protrusion is press-fitted and fixed to the polygonal enlarged recess.

Abstract: A receiver establishes a communication between the receiver and a transmitter that transmits data by a directional wireless communication. While a connection request command which is information for requesting a connection is transmitted from the transmitter to the receiver at a predetermined period, a packet group corresponding to the connection request command is transmitted from the transmitter to the receiver. The receiver includes a receiver connection establishment control section which controls a communication device so that a connection between the transmitter and the receiver is established in accordance with the connection request command, in a case where the connection request information is received from the transmitter while the communication with the transmitter and the receiver is released. This allows the receiver to naturally reproduce streaming data with the use of a directional wireless communication.

Abstract: In a transmitter (2001), when generating a transmission frame having no limitation to a window size, a batch-transmission-end flag generating circuit (2004) and a sequence number generating circuit (2005) respectively adds a batch-transmission-end flag and a sequence number to the transmission frame. In a receiver, if an omission of a sequence number is detected as a result of analyzing sequence numbers of frames having received from the transmitter (2001), retransmission request is made when receiving a frame whose batch-transmission-end flag indicates the end. In this way, retransmission is possible in data transmission using UI frames, and the communication efficiency can be improved.

Abstract: A two-way transmission system of the present invention is arranged in such a manner that, when a host-side controller confirms the receipt of an IN packet from a USB host, the host-side controller transfers the IN packet to a function-side controller, and receives a DATA packet from the function side. The received DATA packet is temporarily stored in a FIFO. At the time of the receipt of the IN packet again, the host-side controller supplies, to the USB host, the DATA packet stored in the FIFO.

Abstract: In a client device (1) including OBEX, a lower layer processing section (13) below an OBEX processing section (12) generates a pseudo response command for a request command, and notifies the pseudo response command to the OBEX layer processing section (12). This makes it possible for the client device (1) to communicate, via object exchange, with a server device having no transmitting function.

Abstract: Protocol conversion based on a communication protocol and data modulation based on a communication method are performed, in advance, on desired transmission data by a host device, which is an external device. Then, the converted data will be written to a memory in a transmitting device. According to a transmission command from an input section, a logical device reads out the converted data stored in the memory, and then outputs the read data from a transmitting section.

Abstract: A communication system includes a transmitter and a receiver that establish mutual connections of a plurality of their communication layers for communication. The transmitter has a request generating part for generating a connection request including data and commands required to connect the plurality of adjacent communication layers, and a request transmitting part for transmitting the connection request to the receiver. The receiver has a request receiving part for receiving the connection request from the transmitter, and a connection establishing pant for extracting the data and commands from the connection request and establishing, based on the extracted data and commands, the connections of the communication layers. In this way, the time required for establishing the connections can be shortened. Thus, even if a data exchange is interrupted, a reconnection can be made in a short time to resume the data exchange.

Abstract: The present invention is a network layer protocol used for free-space optical transmission utilizing an LED or LD as a light source. In order to connect to a device, the network layer issues a connection request command (LAP_con_req2) to a lower layer when the network layer has received a connection request command (LM_con_req1) from an upper layer. Furthermore, when the network layer has received a connection confirmation command reception notification (LAP_con_conf1) from the lower layer, the network layer issues a connection confirmation command reception notification (LM_con_conf2) to the upper layer without issuing a data transfer request command to the lower layer. Accordingly, the invention provides a network layer protocol with which time for a connection or disconnection is reduced.
