Abstract

According to one embodiment, a received data processing apparatus includes a FIFO memory, a forwarding designation unit, and an output processing unit. The FIFO memory stores received data in reception order. The forwarding designation unit analyzes an ID added to the received data having reached a head of the FIFO memory, and outputs a forwarding designation signal that indicates a forwarding destination in the case where there is designation of the forwarding destination, and indicates non-designation in the case where there is no designation of a forwarding destination. The output processing unit performs output processing of the received data having reached the head of the FIFO memory based on the forwarding designation signal.

Claims

1. A received data processing apparatus comprising:

a FIFO memory to store received data in reception order;

a forwarding designation unit to analyze an ID added to the received data having reached a head of the FIFO memory, and to output a forwarding designation signal indicating a forwarding destination in the case where there is designation of the forwarding destination and indicating non-designation in the case where there is no designation of a forwarding destination; and

an output processing unit to perform output processing of the received data having reached the head of the FIFO memory based on the forwarding designation signal.

2. The apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the output processing unit

outputs the received data having reached the head of the FIFO memory to the forwarding destination when the forwarding designation signal indicates the forwarding destination, and

reads and throws the received data having reached the head of the FIFO memory when the forwarding designation signal indicates the non-designation.

3. The apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the forwarding designation unit reads out the ID stored in an ID store unit and added to the received data.

4. The apparatus according to claim 1, further comprising:

a particular ID check unit to check whether the ID coincides with a predetermined particular ID,

wherein, when the particular ID check unit detects the ID being coincided with the predetermined particular ID, the particular ID check unit instructs the forwarding designation unit to cause the forwarding designation signal to indicate non-designation.

5. The apparatus according to claim 4, wherein the forwarding designation unit and the particular ID check unit read out the ID stored in an ID store unit and added to the received data.

6. The apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the FIFO memory is used as a receive buffer in a proximity wireless communication.

7. The apparatus according to claim 1, wherein output data of the FIFO memory is output to the forwarding destination through a bus.

8. A method of processing received data comprising:

storing the received data in a FIFO memory in reception order;

analyzing an ID added to the received data having reached a head of the FIFO memory, and outputting a forwarding designation signal indicating a forwarding destination in the case where there is designation of the forwarding destination and indicating non-designation in the case where there is no designation of a forwarding destination; and

performing output processing of the received data having reached the head of the FIFO memory based on the forwarding designation signal.

9. The method according to claim 8, further comprising:

checking whether the ID coincides with a predetermined particular ID,

wherein, when the ID being coincided with the predetermined particular ID is detected , the forwarding designation signal is caused to indicate non-designation.

10. The method according to claim 8, wherein the received data having reached the head of the FIFO memory is output to the forwarding destination when the forwarding designation signal indicates the forwarding destination, and

the received data having reached the head of the FIFO memory is read and thrown when the forwarding designation signal indicates the non-designation.
