APPARATUS FOR COMMUNICATIONS FOR AN ELECTRONIC MECHANICAL BRAKE SYSTEM

An apparatus for communication for use in an electronic mechanical brake system for braking a vehicle by using electronic mechanical brakes respectively disposed on a left front wheel disposed on the front left side of the vehicle, a right front wheel disposed on the front right side of the vehicle, a left rear wheel disposed on the rear left side of the vehicle, and a right rear wheel disposed on the rear right side of the vehicle, comprising: a main control unit for controlling braking of the vehicle by transmitting a braking command to each of the electronic mechanical brakes; a wheel control unit disposed on each of the electronic mechanical brakes; a first local CAN forming a communication channel through which braking commands are transmitted and received between the main control unit and the wheel control unit; and a second local CAN forming a communication channel between the main control unit and the wheel control unit to secure communication redundancy of the vehicle with the first local CAN.
