Abstract
A method of repairing communication disruption using a gateway, and an apparatus and a system therefor are disclosed. A method of repairing communication disruption in a gateway includes detecting whether failure in a communication line occurs by monitoring a change in voltage of the communication line, successively transmitting communication line disconnection request signals to first to Nth smart joint blocks when the occurrence of the communication line failure is detected, and determining whether the communication line failure is repaired after transmitting the communication line disconnection request signals. The communication line failure may be repaired by identifying a smart joint block causing the failure according to a result of the determination. Accordingly, the present invention has an advantage of providing more stable in-vehicle communication by automatically repairing communication line failure.
