Abstract
An electronic device includes: a receiver that receives a satellite signal; and a time corrector that corrects an internal time. The receiver acquires time synchronization information and satellite time information by receiving the satellite signal, detects update timing of seconds on the basis of the time synchronization information, and executes output processing of outputting a synchronization signal, which indicates output timing, and reception side time information including time difference information, which indicates a time difference between the update timing of seconds and the output timing, and time information of hours, minutes, and seconds based on the satellite time information, before next update timing of seconds. The time corrector corrects the internal time on the basis of the synchronization signal and the reception side time information.
