A data transmitting apparatus which improves security against eavesdropping is provided for secret communication using Y-00 protocol. The multi-level code generation section 111 generates, based on key information 11, a multi-level code sequence 12 in which a signal level changes so as to be approximately random numbers. The multi-level processing section 112 generates a multi-level signal 13 having a level which corresponds to a combination between information data 10 and the multi-level code sequence 12. The error signal generation section 113 generates an error signal 21 which changes randomly. The accumulation section 114 accumulates the error signal 21, and outputs an accumulated error signal 22. The adding section 116 adds the accumulated error signal 22 to the multi-level signal 13, and outputs a variable multi-level signal 23. The modulator section 117 modulates the variable multi-level signal 23, and outputs a modulated signal 14.
