Abstract
A communication method includes: (a) dividing one bit data group into a plurality of bit groups, the one bit data group being taken out from a plurality of bit data groups defined by a communication protocol for transmitting predetermined information, and exerting no substantial influence on the predetermined information even when arbitrarily inverting a value of the bit; (b) determining whether or not the values of the bits constituting the bit group are all the same by each of the plurality of bit groups divided into in step (a); (c) inverting at least one of the values of the bits of the bit group determined in step (b) that the values of the bits are all the same; and (d) arranging the plurality of bit groups, each of which has at least one of the values of the bits inverted in step (c), in the plurality of bit data groups except the one bit data group at regular intervals.
