Claim Text:
1. A transmission apparatus included in a communication system together with a reception apparatus and configured to multiplex data from M (M is a natural number equal to or larger than 2) channels and transmit the data to the reception apparatus, the transmission apparatus comprising: M timing offset units configured to respectively receive inputs of the data from the different channels and insert designated timing offset values in the input data; a multiplexing unit configured to multiplex the M data subjected to the timing offset and output a multiplexed signal; and a timing-offset calculating unit configured to calculate, based on a known value based on a number of channels in the communication system, different timing offset values for the respective M timing offset units and output the calculated timing offset values to the respective timing offset units, the timing-offset calculating unit setting an interval between the different timing offset values based on a time for one symbol and the number of channels.
