Abstract
The communication master repeats transmission of first information indicating a counter value of a synchronization counter of the communication master to the one or more communication slaves through a network. Each of the one or more communication slaves updates the counter value of the synchronization counter of each of the one or more communication slaves based on the received first information upon receiving the first information from the communication master. The communication master manages a total number of pieces of the first information transmitted for each of the one or more communication slaves, and estimates synchronization accuracy with respect to the communication master for each communication slave based on a number of transmissions of the first information for each communication slave.
