摘要

An information transmission system includes a transmission apparatus and a reception apparatus and uses visible lights as transmission media. The transmission apparatus includes a generating unit and a first replace unit. The generating unit generates a multi-value symbol stream. The first replace unit replaces the multi-value symbol stream generated by the generating unit to a discontinuous symbol stream. The discontinuous symbol stream is a symbol stream without a sequence of identical symbol values. The number of identical symbol values in the sequence is equal to or greater than a predetermined number. The reception apparatus includes an acquiring unit and a second replace unit. The acquiring unit acquires the discontinuous symbol stream. The second replace unit replaces the discontinuous symbol stream acquired by the acquiring unit to the multi-value symbol stream according to a predetermined rule.
