IMAGE DATA COMMUNICATION EQUIPMENT AND COMMUNICATION DATA AMOUNT CONTROL METHOD FOR IMAGE DATA COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent other service provided by a network from being affected by transferring image data for an optimum data amount based on the traffic of the network concerning image data communication equipment and communication data amount control method for image data communication system suitable to be used when transferring the image data of video images, etc., in a network environment. SOLUTION: This equipment is provided with a data transmission part 2 for transmitting the image data to other image data communication equipment 19, a traffic detection part 3 for detecting the traffic of a network 20 and a communication data amount control part 4 for setting the number of transmittable image transfer frames based on the traffic detected by the traffic detection part 3 and automatically controlling the amount of communication data at the data transmission part 2 based on the set number of frames.
