Abstract

In order to achieve the dispersion of a processing load between communication devices that perform information transmission, an information communication system according to an exemplary aspect of the present invention includes a first transmission system configured to transmit information in a direction from a first communication device to a second communication device; and a second transmission system configured to transmit information in a direction opposite to the direction of the first transmission system, wherein part of transmission information is received as received information in each of the first transmission system and the second transmission system.

Claims (42)

1. An information communication system, comprising:

a first transmission system configured to transmit information in a direction from a first communication device to a second communication device; and

a second transmission system configured to transmit information in a direction opposite to the direction of the first transmission system,

wherein each of the first communication device and the second communication device includes an information processor configured to perform information processing using transmission information transmitted from its own device and received information received from another communication device, and

a data volume of the received information is smaller than a data volume of the transmission information,

wherein each of the first communication device and the second communication device includes

a transmitter configured to transmit transmission information to another communication device,

a receiver configured to receive received information from the another communication device,

a switch configured to, at a time of parameter adjustment of the transmitter, turn back a transmission signal outputted from the transmitter and make the transmission signal be inputted to the receiver, and

a parameter adjustment unit configured to adjust a transmission parameter of the transmitter based on a received signal of the receiver having received the signal that is turned back.

2. A communication device, comprising:

a transmitting unit configured to transmit information to another communication device through a first transmission line;

a receiving unit configured to receive information through a second transmission line from the another communication device;

an information processor configured to perform information processing using the transmission information transmitted by the transmitting unit and the received information received from the another communication device,

wherein a data volume of the received information is smaller than a data volume of the transmission information;

a switch configured to, at a time of parameter adjustment of the transmitting unit, turn back a transmission signal outputted from the transmitting unit and make the transmission signal be inputted to the receiving unit; and

a parameter adjustment unit configured to adjust a transmission parameter of the transmitting unit based on a received signal of the receiving unit having received the signal that is turned back.

3. An information communication method, comprising:

transmitting and receiving information at each of a first communication device and a second communication device by use of a first transmission system and a second transmission system, the first transmission system and the second transmission system having transmission directions opposite to each other;

receiving part of transmission information as received information in each of the first transmission system and the second transmission system;

performing, at each of the first communication device and the second communication device, information processing using transmission information transmitted from its own device and received information received from another communication device,

wherein a data volume of the received information is smaller than a data volume of the transmission information;

turning back, at a time of parameter adjustment of a transmitter to transmit transmission information to another communication device, in each of the first communication device and the second communication device, a transmission signal outputted from the transmitter and making the transmission signal be inputted to a receiver to receive received information from the another communication device; and

adjusting a transmission parameter of the transmitter based on a received signal of the receiver having received the signal that is turned back.

4. The information communication system according to claim 1 ,

wherein the first transmission system is configured to transmit first random number information in a direction from the first communication device to the second communication device; and

the second transmission system is configured to transmit second random number information in a direction opposite to the direction of the first transmission system,

wherein in each of the first transmission system and the second transmission system, part of transmission random number information transmitted is received as received random number information.

5. The information communication system according to claim 4 ,

wherein each of the first communication device and the second communication device includes an encryption key generation unit configured to generate an encryption key using the transmission random number information transmitted by its own device and the received random number information received from another communication device.

6. The information communication system according to claim 4 ,

wherein each of the first communication device and the second communication device includes

a transmitter configured to transmit transmitting random number information to another communication device,

a receiver configured to receive received random number information from the another communication device,

a switch configured to, at a time of parameter adjustment of the transmitter, turn back a transmission signal outputted from the transmitter and make the transmission signal be input to the receiver, and

a parameter adjustment unit configured to adjust a transmission parameter of the transmitter based on a received signal of the receiver having received the signal that is turned back.

7. The information communication system according to claim 5 ,

wherein each of the first communication device and the second communication device includes

a transmitter configured to transmit transmitting random number information to another communication device,

a receiver configured to receive received random number information from the another communication device,

a switch configured to, at a time of parameter adjustment of the transmitter, turn back a transmission signal outputted from the transmitter and make the transmission signal be input to the receiver, and

a parameter adjustment unit configured to adjust a transmission parameter of the transmitter based on a received signal of the receiver having received the signal that is turned back.
