Patent ID: 7860458

Claim:
An audio transmitting apparatus connectable to an audio playing apparatus via a short distance wireless communication network, comprising: a transmission buffer configured to store an audio signal; and a short distance wireless transmitting unit configured to cause the audio signal to be stored in the transmission buffer, or transmit the audio signal stored in the transmission buffer to the audio playing apparatus, wherein, when a transmission process in which the audio signal is transmitted to the audio playing apparatus by the short distance wireless transmitting unit is interrupted, the short distance wireless transmitting unit corrects the audio signal and stores the corrected audio signal in the transmission buffer, or corrects the audio signal stored in the transmission buffer and transmits the corrected audio signal to the audio playing apparatus, wherein a value is calculated by dividing an amount of the audio signal stored in the transmission buffer by a storage capacity allocated to the transmission buffer, and wherein, when the calculated value is larger than a first threshold value, the short distance wireless transmitting unit judges that the transmission process is interrupted.
