ABSTRACT:
In a communications system, a transmitter transmits message data included in communications packets to a receiver. A data region of the communications packet includes an original data region D[n], an authentication data region P[n], and a control region C. The original data region D[n] includes data as a transmission object that is the message data itself or one of the data portions into which the message data is divided so that each of the data portions can be contained in a single packet. The authentication data region P[n] includes authentication information used for substitution detection of the data included in the original data region D[n]. The control region C includes control information. This structure enables the substitution detection to be performed with respect to the respective communications packets into which the message data is divided, resulting in decrease in the substitution detection period.
