Receiving apparatus and method therefor

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a receiving apparatus and a method therefor which are capable of decreasing a processing load and efficiently improving reproduction quality. A packet accumulating unit stores packets and packet type, and another packet information. A statistics information accumulating unit accumulates statistics information (e.g., an error ratio, performance (processing condition) of the receiving apparatus, a condition of a stream, and a condition of a buffer). A packet-correcting-method selecting unit selects a packet correcting method from a packet correction table generated in accordance with the packet information and packet identification/statistics information from the statistics information accumulating unit, and supplies a packet to be corrected to a packet correcting unit in a case where the packet in process is determined to be a target of correction. For example, the present disclosure can be applied to a communication system that transmits and receives data.
