Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a transmitter and a transmission method and a receiver and a reception method that make it possible to suppress an increase in power consumption. Data in which a clock signal is embedded is transmitted, and a frequency of the clock signal embedded in the data is controlled to reduce the frequency of the clock signal in a predetermined period. Alternatively, data in which a clock signal is embedded and a notification indicating that a frequency of the clock signal is variable are received, and a frequency of the received data is reduced in a predetermined period, on the basis of the received notification. The present disclosure is applicable to, for example, a transmitter, a receiver, a signal processor, a controller, an information transfer system, a transmission method, a reception method, a program, or the like.
