A transmitting and receiving system is provided. The transmitting of receiving system includes a transmitting apparatus to transmit data and a receiving apparatus to receive the data by means of radio communication. The transmitting apparatus includes: data transmission means for transmitting the data; state information reception means for receiving state information indicative of states of the radio communication from the receiving apparatus; and control means for controlling transmission using the data transmission means. When the state information reception means receives state information indicating a degraded state of the radio communication, the control means stores control information for the data transmission means to control transmission immediately before the state information is received; and, when the state information reception means thereafter receives state information indicating a normal state of the radio communication, the control means uses the most recently stored control information to control transmission by means of the data transmission means. The receiving apparatus includes: data reception means for receiving data transmitted from the data transmission means by means of the radio communication; determination means for determining the radio communication state based on data received by the data reception means; and state information transmission means for transmitting state information indicating the radio communication state determined by the determination means to the transmitting apparatus.
