COMMUNICATION APPARATUS, COMMUNICATION METHOD, AND PROGRAM

The present disclosure relates to a communication apparatus, a communication method, and a program that are able to improve the communication function regarding the timing of sampling. The communication apparatus includes a link data generation section and a transmission section. The link data generation section generates link data for linking sampling data to the timing at which the sampling data is generated. The transmission section appends the link data to the sampling data and transmits the resulting data to another communication apparatus through a bus. The communication apparatus further includes a time information generation section that generates time information indicating the occurrence time of an event that initiates the sampling of the sampling data. The link data links the time information to the sampling data. The present technology is applicable, for example, to a communication system that establishes communication in compliance with the I3C standard.
