Inter-main-apparatus interface device, main-apparatus system including same, and inter-main-apparatus interface method

An inter-main-apparatus interface method, comprising the steps of:

• that a controller included in a second-standard main apparatus is operated on the basis of control data supplied from a first-standard main apparatus through a control data interface provided between the first-standard main apparatus and the second-standard main apparatus;
• and
• that the second-standard main apparatus, as controlled by the controller being operated on the basis of the control data, relays, by multiplexing and demultiplexing, content data sent and received by a base station connected to the first-standard main apparatus and content data sent and received by a base station connected to the second-standard main apparatus using a content data interface provided between the first-standard main apparatus and the second-standard main apparatus.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium on which a program is recorded, said program, when executed, causing a computer to function as an inter-main-apparatus interface, the program causing the computer to function as:

• a control data interface provided between a first-standard main apparatus and a second-standard main apparatus for operating a controller included in the second-standard main apparatus on the basis of control data supplied from the first-standard main apparatus;
• and
• a content data interface provided between the first-standard main apparatus and the second-standard main apparatus for enabling the second-standard main apparatus, as controlled by the controller operating on the basis of the control data, to relay, by multiplexing and demultiplexing, content data sent and received by a base station connected to the first-standard main apparatus and content data sent and received by a base station connected to the second-standard main apparatus.
