Abstract:
1. A waveform distortion removing apparatus for a communication network having a first electronic control unit, a second electronic control unit, a transmission path connecting the first and second electronic control units, and a third electronic control unit adapted to be connected to a branch path branched off from the transmission path and communicatable with at least one of the first and second electronic control units, the first and second electronic control units being each terminated with a termination circuit designed in accordance with a characteristic impedance of the transmission path, wherein the improvement comprises: a connector that is connected to a connection point mounted on a circuit board in which the third electronic control unit is installed so that the third electronic control unit is connected to the branch path via the connector; and a conducting wire for removing a waveform distortion connected to the branch path via the connector at one end, wherein a length of the conducting wire is determined in accordance with a frequency of a reference wave.
