Abstract
A data communication method in which a transmitting station divides data into a plurality of data blocks and transmits the data blocks in parallel through a plurality of communication lines, and a receiving station receives the data blocks transmitted from the transmitting station through the plurality of communication lines and composes the data blocks into original data. In the data communication method, it is detected that a new transmission request is present during a parallel data transmission through a plurality of communication lines, one or more of the communication lines are released to continuously use the remaining communication lines for the parallel data transmission in response to the detected new transmission request, and a new data transmission is performed through the released communication line or lines.
