Abstract

In a sending apparatus, a storage section stores information which associates a first communication quality and a second communication quality with hierarchical modulation methods each using a plurality of channels. On the basis of the information stored in the storage section, a control section selects a hierarchical modulation method corresponding to the first communication quality which is a communication quality for a receiving apparatus and the second communication quality which is a communication quality for a receiving apparatus. A sending section maps data a destination of which is the receiving apparatus and data a destination of which is the receiving apparatus to the plurality of channels according to the hierarchical modulation method selected, and transmits the data.
