Abstract

A time-point synchronization apparatus () includes a time-point management unit (), a time-gap counter (), and a time-gap calculation unit (). The time-point management unit () manages an apparatus time point equivalent to a current time point. The time-gap counter () records a time gap which is a different between a time point indicated in reception information and the apparatus time point. When a frequency in the time-gap counter (), corresponding to the time gap corresponding to a latest reception time point corresponding to latest reception information is treated as the highest among all of frequencies indicated in the time-gap counter (), the time-gap calculation unit () synchronizes the apparatus time point to the latest reception time point.
