Image receiving device and image receiving method

An image transmission method which compresses and transmits image data comprising:

• a step of compressing image data;
• a step of computing an error correction code with respect to compressed image data;
• and
• a step of outputting the compressed image data and the error correction code,
• wherein a period in which the compressed image data is outputted and a period in which the error correction code is outputted are different periods.

An image receiving device which receives a compressed image data comprising:

• an input unit which receives the compressed image data and an error correction code;
• an error correction unit which corrects an error of the compressed image data based on the error correction code thus received;
• an expansion unit which expands the compressed image data corrected by the error correction unit;
• and
• an output unit which outputs the image data expanded by the expansion unit,
• wherein a period in which the compressed image data is transmitted and a period in which the error correction code is transmitted are different periods.

An image receiving method comprising:

• a step of inputting compressed an image data and an error correction code;
• a step of correcting an error of the compressed image data based on the input error correction code;
• a step of expanding the error-corrected compressed image data;
• and
• a step of outputting the expanded image data,
• wherein a period in which the compressed image data is transmitted and a period in which the error correction code is transmitted are different periods.
