Abstract
A communication apparatus includes an output portion and a controller. The output portion outputs an output signal. The output signal includes a synchronization signal, a data signal, and an end signal in this order. The controller includes a measuring portion that measures a length of a received pulse, a signal determiner that determines whether the received pulse corresponds to the synchronization signal based on the length of the received pulse, and a signal acquisition portion. The signal acquisition portion skips the received pulse in a case where the signal determiner determines that the received signal does not include the synchronization signal. The signal acquisition portion considers the received signal as the synchronization signal and reads a pulse following the received pulse to the end signal in a case where the signal determiner determines that the received signal includes the synchronization signal.
