  • Patent number: 7333439
    Abstract: The packet loss in a wired section is reported to a receiving terminal (61) using a loss notification packet from a gateway (62) located at the boundary between a wired section and a wireless section, and thus the causes for packet loss are separated. Also, using this loss notification packet, the packet loss rate in the wired section and the wireless section are separately calculated and the transmission rate and robustness of the data packets are determined with a sending terminal (60) in accordance with the respective loss rate of the sections.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 13, 2001
    Date of Patent: February 19, 2008
    Assignee: Matsushita Electric Industrial Co., Ltd.

  • Publication number: 20020073136
    Abstract: In a data receiving terminal, a time stamp of the data whose reproduction has been terminated is stored in a memory when receiving/reproducing certain content, and when this certain content is reconnected to, a sending device (server) is requested to send data from the time stamp stored in the memory.

  • Publication number: 20020071052
    Abstract: A video file including at least two sets of video data encoded from the viewpoints of encoding rate variation, motion priority and image quality priority is prepared on a sending terminal. Then, the video data to be sent are dynamically switched in accordance with motion/image priority instructions entered by a user into a receiving terminal, or changes in the available transmission bandwidth.
