Abstract
In an image transmission apparatus, image data frames are sequentially received from the source terminal through a connection line at a first transmission rate while checking whether an error occurs in each of the image data frames. When the error occurs in consecutive image data frames whose run length is not smaller than a predetermined value, the transmission rate is changed to a second transmission rate which is smaller than the first transmission rate based on the run length of the consecutive image data frames and the predetermined value. At the second transmission rate, image data frames in which the error occurred are sequentially received from the source terminal through the connection line.
