A transmission apparatus includes a transmission equalizer that equalizes a transmission signal transmitted in a signal transmission performed via a non-contact coupling including a magnetic coupling of a pair of coupling elements. The transmission equalizer creates plural equivalent transmission signals by branching the transmission signal; and includes plural signal paths that respectively give time delays different from each other to the equivalent transmission signals, and respectively multiplies the delayed transmission signals by tap coefficients. In addition, at least one pair of signal paths is set includes a variable delay circuit that can change the corresponding time delay to be given to the corresponding transmission signal.
