Abstract
In a communication apparatus data is inputted to an input section. A priority determination section determines priority of the data inputted by the input section. If the priority of the data determined by the priority determination section is higher than a determined value, then a speed control section sets a transmission speed of the data outputted from an output section to a high value. On the other hand, if the priority of the data determined by the priority determination section is lower than the determined value, then the speed control section sets the transmission speed of the data outputted from the output section to a low value. The output section outputs the data at the set transmission speed.
Claims14
A communication apparatus comprising:
- an input section to which data is inputted;
- a priority determination section which determines priority of the data inputted by the input section;
- an output section which outputs the data at a set transmission speed;
- and
- a speed control section which sets the transmission speed of the data outputted from the output section to a high value in a case of the priority of the data determined by the priority determination section being higher than a determined value and which sets the transmission speed of the data outputted from the output section to a low value in a case of the priority of the data determined by the priority determination section being lower than the determined value, wherein:
- the data includes control information used for transferring the data;
- the control information includes destination address information indicative of a destination address of the data;
- and
- the priority determination section determines, on the basis of the destination address information included in the control information included in the data inputted from the input section, that the priority of the data is higher than the determined value, the destination address information indicating a determined address.
