Data transmission system
First Claim
1. A data transmission system for distributing predetermined data through transmission paths, the data transmission system comprising:
- a data transmitting apparatus including data supply means for supplying the data, transmission control means for dividing the data supplied by the data supply means into a predetermined number of data files to distribute the divided divisional data files, and data transmitting means for transmitting each of the distributed divisional data files respectively through a predetermined transmission path; and
a data receiving apparatus including data receiving means for receiving the divisional data files transmitted through the predetermined transmission paths, data receiving control means for restoring the received divisional data files into original data, and data output means for outputting the restored data.

Abstract
A transmission control unit (12) of a transmitting station (10) specifies usable plural transmission paths (20). A data supply unit (11) transfers movie contents file encoded by MPEG 4 to plural divisional distribution encoders (13) corresponding to the specified plural transmission paths (20). The respective divisional distribution encoders (13) divide movie contents file into plural divisional distribution data in which original data file can be restored by carrying out synthesis. Further, the transmitting station (10) transmits divided respective divisional distribution data through transmission paths different from each other. Respective receiving units (31) of a receiving station (30) respectively receive divisional distribution data from the plural transmission paths (20). A linking decoder (32) synthesizes plural divisional distribution data to restore original movie contents file. Thus, high speed transfer of contents file of large capacity can be carried out.
