UNMANNED VEHICLE APPARATUS FOR SUPPORTING TIME SYNCHRONIZATION BETWEEN UNMANNED VEHICLES AND METHOD FOR THE SAME

摘要

According to an embodiment of the present invention, provided is an apparatus for supporting time synchronization between unmanned vehicles, comprising: a time synchronization message generator generating a first time synchronization message including information on a reference time axis used for time synchronization of at least one unmanned vehicle or at least one board in the unmanned vehicle; a communication unit transmitting the first time synchronization message to the networked unmanned vehicle, at least one board in the unmanned vehicle, or other time synchronization supporting device, and receiving a second time synchronization message from the unmanned vehicle or the other time synchronization supporting device; and a time synchronization unit using the first time synchronization message and the second time synchronization message to determine an optimal time axis, and using the optimal time axis to synchronize an internal time axis with the unmanned vehicle, the board, or the other time synchronization supporting device.
