Transmission apparatus and signal transmission method

摘要

A transmission apparatus stores frame data of a first frame in a second frame having a bit rate different from that of the first frame through regulation of the amount of stuffs to be stored in the second frame. The transmission apparatus includes: a storage unit storing the first-frame frame data; a first control unit controlling a timing of writing the first-frame frame data in the storage unit based on first stuff information indicating the amount of stuffs contained in the first frame; an arithmetic and logic unit obtaining second stuff information indicating the amount of stuffs to be contained in the second frame based on a bit rate ratio between the first frame and the second frame; and a second control unit controlling a timing of reading out the first-frame frame data stored in the storage unit based on the second stuff information.
