Abstract
In a communication apparatus, a buffer offset calculator calculates a buffer offset for a transmission-ready state k-th communication unit in accordance with a total number of at least one of data packets that is (i) transmittable by at least one m-th communication unit in the N communication units except for the k-th communication unit and (ii) completely received by the recipient device within a data transmission period of the communication network corresponding to the k-th communication unit (m is each of variables 1 to N except for k). A data packet allocator selects, in a queue of the data packets stored in the transmission buffer, one of the data packets, a beginning of the selected data packet being located offset by the buffer offset relative to a beginning of the queue of the data packets. The data packet allocator allocates the selected data packet to the k-th communication unit.
