Abstract
A time information acquisition apparatus comprises an input waveform data pattern generator configured to sample a standard time radio wave signal in order to generate an input waveform data pattern, a predicted waveform data pattern generator configured to generate predicted waveform data patterns, represents a string of codes based on a base time, and has a head position, an error detector configured to detect non-coincidence between the input waveform data pattern and each of the predicted waveform data patterns in order to acquire a number of errors indicative of a number of non-coincidences, a current time correction module configured to correct the base time based on the predicted waveform data pattern indicative of a minimum value of the number of errors, and a controller configured to determine the number of predicted waveform data patterns to be generated.
