Abstract
When transmitting signals to the respective two paths having a routing length difference on a transmitting side, a signal identifying one and the other of the respective two paths is given to the transmission signal before transmission to one and the other of the paths. On the receiving side, after the two paths have been intentionally switched in the state of non-instantaneous disconnection from one path to the other under external control, a change from the signal identifying one of the paths to the signal identifying the other path is detected.
