Data transmission method and system thereof, portable terminal, and data receiver

摘要

In a data transmission method according to an exemplary embodiment, a data transmitter, which is capable of outputting a dummy light for judging an optical axis and a signal light having a beam spread smaller than that of the dummy light on the same optical axis, outputs the dummy light for scan so as to go across a photoreceiving part of a data receiver. When the dummy light having a predetermined optical level or more is optically received, the data receiver informs the data transmitter of reception chance and prepares for receiving the data. The data transmitter outputs the data carried by the signal light to the data receiver according to the information indicating the reception chance from the data receiver. The data receiver receives the data by optically receiving the signal light from the data transmitter.
