Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A communication system includes a first communication apparatus and a second communication apparatus. The first communication apparatus generates and transmits communication data in accordance with a predetermined protocol. The second communication apparatus includes a power circuit section having a switching regulator, and is configured to receive the communication data transmitted from the first communication apparatus. The predetermined protocol includes a protocol defining that at least one portion of a bit sequence constituting the communication data should be associated with an operation of the switching regulator. The second communication apparatus causes the switching regulator to operate in a time period in which the at least one portion of the communication data is received, in a state where the communication data is received.
