Patent Searching and Data


Title:
INFORMATION TRANSMISSION SYSTEM AND METHOD, TRANSMITTER AND RECEIVER, DATA PROCESSING DEVICE AND DATA PROCESSING METHOD, AND RECORDED MEDIUM
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2001/033771
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
When data is transmitted to a receiver piece by piece, the address specifically allocated to the receiver is added to the data and transmitted together. When common data is transmitted to an arbitrary group of receivers, a set of common address information representing the common part of addresses of the receivers and a set of address range information specifying the range of the common part of the addresses are added to the data and transmitted together. When the transmitted data is received, the specific address is compared with the address added to the data. If the specific address agrees with the address added to the data, or if the specific address partially agrees with the common address information to which the data is added in the range indicated by the address range information, the data is decoded.
