Patent ID: 8111719

Claim:
A transmission system comprising: a transmission-side device that transmits data; and a reception-side device that receives the data from the transmission-side device, wherein the transmission-side device comprises: a transmission-side clock generation unit that generates a first clock signal with a predetermined frequency, on the basis of a reference clock signal included in a radio wave from a GPS satellite; a clock extraction unit that removes a data clock signal, superimposed with transmission data, to be transmitted to the reception-side device; a clock difference acquisition unit that determines a difference between the first clock signal and data clock signal; a packet generation unit that packetizes the information on the difference determined by the clock difference acquisition unit; wherein the reception-side device comprises: a reception-side clock generation unit that generates a second clock signal with a predetermined frequency, on the basis of the reference clock signal included in a radio wave from the GPS satellite; a packet reception unit that receives the information on the difference packetized by the packet generation unit, from the transmission-side device; and a data clock regeneration unit that regenerates the data clock on the basis of the second clock signal and the difference information determined by the clock difference acquisition unit.
