The present disclosure relates to a transmission apparatus, a transmission method, a reception apparatus, and a reception method that can ensure a reduced processing burden on a receiving side in LPWA (Low Power Wide Area) communication. Communication data is sent and received at a communication time of day and a communication frequency based on group identification information set for groups into which a plurality of transmission apparatuses is divided and communication interval information shared by the transmission apparatuses and a reception apparatus, rather than individual identification information. The present disclosure is applicable to an LPWA communication system.

Transmission apparatus, transmission method, reception apparatus, and reception method

The present technology relates to a transmission device, a transmission method, a reception device, a reception method, and a communication method capable of shortening a pause time of data transmission. According to an aspect of the present technology, a transmission device classifies channels usable for data transmission into a plurality of groups, selects the channels that are used in transmission units and that continue on a time axis from the channels of the different groups in accordance with an identifier, and performs the data transmission of the transmission units by using the selected channels. It is possible to make application to a communication system transmitting data through one-way communication from a transmission device to a reception device.

An audio/video (AV) information transaction system includes AV appliances installed in individual rooms, controllers associated with the AV appliances and a host computer which is linked with the controllers through a local area network (LAN), thereby forming a computer network. The host computer transfers control programs to the controllers. A controller in a room which runs the received control program sends a command signal of the demand of AV output reception to other controller in other room over the LAN cable, and the receiving controller operates the associated AV appliance and delivers the output AV signal to the demanding controller over the LAN cable.
