摘要:
The present invention relates to a transmission device and a transmission method which can efficiently perform transmission of audio signals with infrared ray and suppress the complication of data processing in modulation and demodulation processes to the minimum level. Audio signals reproduced by a digital audio instrument are transmitted to and recorded into a digital audio recorder through an audio signal transmission device by infrared ray. In the digital audio recorder, the recorded audio signals are immediately reproduced, transmitted and output to a digital audio instrument through an audio transmission device with infrared ray. In the transmitters, a transmission channel clock having the frequency of 5/4-times the data clock thereof from the audio signals, and modulated signals obtained by modulating the audio signals are output at the timing of the transmission channel clock.

The transmitter QPSK-modulates the audio data, generates a transmission channel clock having a frequency 5/4 times the data clock based on the audio data, and outputs the modulated signal resulted from QPSK-modulation at the timing of the transmission channel clock. The infrared emitter emits infrared-rays based on the modulated signal. Digital data is thus efficiently transmitted by way of infrared-rays with suppressed complexity of data processing for modulation and demodulation.

The optimal range of a minimum run length d corresponding to the minimum number of successive same symbols is determined by a procedure which includes a first step to determine the minimum S/N required for obtaining a desired error rate from the relationship between a bit error rate and the S/N when d=0; a second step to obtain the relationship between a change of the numerical value d and that of the S/N by calculating, on the basis of the required minimum S/N obtained at the first step, the S/N loss caused due to the change of the numerical value d; and a third step to determine, from the relationship between the numerical value d and the S/N, the range of the value d corresponding to the S/N of the transmission characteristic dependent on an optical system and an optical disc.
