Abstract:
Individual clock adjustments between electronic devices are typically based around a round-trip time (RTT) measurement of the reference message between initiating and the receiving devices. With increasing expectations of clock synchronization accuracy, as well as widespread use of wireless data networks, the presently disclosed technology provides a dedicated clock synchronization network that yields a fixed delay between hops and within associated devices of a dedicated clock synchronization network. By accounting for the known delays between hops and within associated devices of the dedicated clock synchronization network, better clock synchronization accuracy can be achieved than prior art techniques that estimate latency based on an RTT measurement.
