Abstract
A time synchronization subdevice includes a periodic data receiver that receives periodic data transmitted periodically from a time synchronization reference device, an acquirer that acquires first priority information indicating a first priority assigned to the time synchronization reference device, a first priority transmitter that transmits the first priority information to another time synchronization subdevice, a second priority information transmitter that transmits, when the periodic data is interrupted, transmission information indicating a second priority assigned to the time synchronization subdevice, a second priority information receiver that receives reception information indicating a second priority assigned to a device different from the time synchronization subdevice, and a distributor that distributes, when the periodic data is interrupted and the second priority indicated with the transmission information is higher than the second priority indicated with the reception information, time measured by a clocking unit as new shared time to the another time synchronization subdevice.
