Abstract: Examples of a substrate processing apparatus include a signal transmitter that outputs a command signal, and an RF generator that receives the command signal, starts to output traveling wave power simultaneously with a first transition of the command signal, measures a delay time, which is a time period after the first transition of the command signal until a predetermined power-applied state is achieved on a receiving side of the traveling wave power, and stops outputting the traveling wave power when the delay time elapses after a second transition of the command signal.
