Transmission method using parity packets, transmitter and repeater

摘要

Provided is a transmission method executed by a transmitting apparatus to transmit a content to a plurality of terminals. The content having transmission count information indicating a number of times the content is to be transmitted by the transmitting apparatus. The transmission method including a first transmission step of generating and transmitting a first transmission signal which transfers at least a first portion of a plurality of data packets including a plurality of content packets, storing data of the content therein, and a plurality of parity packets, generated from the content packets, and a second transmission step of, when the transmission count information of the content indicates a plurality of times, generating a second transmission signal including at least a second portion of the plurality of data packets, and transmitting the second transmission signal during a period which differs from a period during which the first transmission signal is transmitted.
