There is provided an information processing apparatus includes a first module and a second module. The first module includes a first signal generator that produces a first signal by coding a first transmitted data into a waveform not including a direct-current component, having a polarity being inverted in each half period of a clock; a first signal sending unit that sends the first signal; and a signal subtracting unit that subtracts the first signal from a received signal. The second module includes a clock detecting unit that detects the clock based on the polarity inverting period of the first signal received from the first module; a second signal generator that produces a second signal by coding a second transmitted data into a waveform not including the direct-current component; and a second signal sending unit that sends the second signal while the second signal is synchronously added to the first signal.
