  • the synchronization accuracy due to the error between the clocks of the master and the slave is improved. The decrease can be suppressed.
  • time synchronization protocol of IEEE1588 is adopted as the time synchronization method
  • the time synchronization method is not limited to this, and other time synchronization protocols may be synchronized.
  • the set time that is the starting point for counting the elapsed time of the set communication cycle is the time when the slave last transmitted the data to the master, but the present invention is not limited to this.
  • the set time may be the time when the specific notification is received from the master.
  • a computer-readable recording medium including a magnetic disk, an optical disk, a magneto-optical disk, a flash memory, a semiconductor memory, and a magnetic tape can be used.

Abstract

Un système de communication (1) effectue une communication synchrone par un modèle maître-esclave. Un dispositif de communication (201) et un dispositif de communication (202) servant d'esclaves sont configurés pour communiquer avec un dispositif de communication (100) servant de maître à des cycles de communication dissemblables. Une unité de détermination de synchronisation (240) de chacun des dispositifs de communication (201, 202) détermine si le temps en question coïncide avec un instant de transmission pour transmettre des données au dispositif de communication (100) en accord avec le temps cadencée par une unité d'horloge (210) indiquant qu'un instant correspondant au cycle de communication réglé du dispositif de communication (201, 202) s'est écoulé depuis le temps défini. Une unité de communication (250) transmet les données au dispositif de communication (100) lorsque l'unité de détermination de synchronisation (240) détermine que le temps en question coïncide avec l'instant de transmission Une unité d'horloge (110) du dispositif de communication (100) mesure un temps de référence. Une unité de synchronisation temporelle (120) rapporte le temps de référence aux dispositifs de communication (201, 201) et effectue une synchronisation temporelle de l'unité d'horloge (210) et de l'unité d'horloge (110).
