## Abstract

A transmission system includes a data sending device that sends data at a first speed and a data receiving device that receives, by using a plurality of clocks having different phases, data that has been sent by the sending device at the first speed. The data sending device sends, to the data receiving device, some of the data, which is sent at the first speed, at a second speed that is lower than the first speed. Furthermore, in accordance with determination as to whether the content of the received data sent at the second speed matches a corresponding portion of the data received by using a plurality of clocks, the data receiving device changes the timing at which the data that has been sent at the first speed is received.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A transmission system comprising:
a sending device that includes
a first sending unit that sends data at a first speed, and
a second sending unit that sends, at a second speed that is lower than the first speed, some of the data sent from the first sending unit; and
a receiving device that includes
a clock creating unit that creates a plurality of clocks having different phases,
a plurality of receiving units which receive, by using the plurality of clocks created by the clock creating unit, respectively, the data that has been sent from the first sending unit, and
a changing unit that changes, in accordance with determination as to whether the content of the received data sent from the second sending unit matches a corresponding portion of the data received by the plurality of receiving units, the timing at which the data that has been sent from the first sending unit is received.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The transmission system according to claim 1, wherein
the receiving device further includes a selecting unit that selects a predetermined number of data from among the data received by the plurality of receiving units by using a plurality of clocks whose phase continue,
the receiving device further includes a detecting unit that detects, from among the data selected by the selecting unit, data that does not match the content of the received data sent from the second sending unit, and
when the detecting unit detects data that does not match the content of the received data sent from the second sending unit, the changing unit changes data that is to be selected by the selecting unit such that the selecting unit selects a predetermined number of data other than the data that does not match the content of the received data sent from the second sending unit.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The transmission system according to claim 1, wherein, when the detecting unit detects data that does not match the content of the received data sent from the second sending unit, the selecting unit counts the number of data that does not match the content of the received data sent from the second sending unit and shifts, by the counted number, data that is to be selected by the selecting unit.

### Claim 4 (depends on 3)

The transmission system according to claim 3, wherein the receiving device further includes an output unit that outputs data, from among the data received by the plurality of receiving units, that is detected by the detecting unit and that matches the content of the received data sent from the second sending unit.

### Claim 5

A sending device comprising:
a first sending unit that sends data at a first speed; and
a second sending unit that sends, at a second speed that is lower than the first speed, some of the data sent from the first sending unit.

### Claim 6

A receiving device comprising:
a clock creating unit that creates a plurality of clocks having different phases;
a plurality of first receiving units which receive, by using the plurality of clocks created by the clock creating unit, respectively, data sent from a sending device, which is the send source of the data, at a first speed;
a second receiving unit that receives data that has been sent at a second speed that is lower than the first speed and that is some of the data that has been sent at the first speed by the sending device; and
a changing unit that changes, in accordance with determination as to whether the data received by the second receiving unit matches a corresponding portion of the data received by the plurality of first receiving units, the timing at which the data sent from the plurality of first receiving units is received.

### Claim 7

A transmission method executed by a transmission system that includes a sending device that sends data at a first speed and a receiving device that receives, by using a plurality of clocks having different phases, the data sent from the sending device at a first speed, the transmission method comprising:
sending, performed by the sending device, at a second speed that is lower than the first speed, some of the data sent at the first speed; and
changing, performed by the receiving device, in accordance with determination as to whether the content of the received data sent at the second speed matches a corresponding portion of the data that is received by using the plurality of clocks, the timing at which the data sent at the first speed is received.
