    摘要: A method and an interface unit is provided to maintain timing synchronization between a first Radio Equipment Controller (REC) and a second REC operating with a multi-standard base station. The first REC receives a synchronization signal and synchronized data output is generated from the synchronization signal. A clock signal is then generated from the synchronized data output. At the second REC, the synchronized data output is received and a synchronization source is then reconstructed from the first clock signal. A timing and frequency component of a second clock signal is then aligned to that of the reconstructed synchronization source, such that the second REC can maintain synchronization with the first REC.

    摘要: A method (10) of encapsulating digital communications traffic for transmission on an optical link, the method comprising: a. receiving an input digital communications signal having an input line code (12); b. performing clock and data recovery on the input digital communications signal to obtain input line coded digital communications traffic and a recovered clock signal (14); c. decoding the input digital communications traffic to obtain information bits and non-information bits (16); d. removing the non-information bits (18); e. adding service channel bits for monitoring or maintenance (20); f. assembling the service channel bits and information bits into frames (22); and g. line coding the assembled frames using an output line code to form an encapsulated digital communications signal for transmission on an optical link (24), wherein steps c. to g. are performed using the timing of the recovered clock signal. A communications network receiver configured to implement the method is also provided.

    摘要: Embodiments of the invention include a method for use in a device having a local oscillator. The method includes - for the local oscillator that is disciplined by an external reference signal while locked to the external reference signal - training a mathematical model of the oscillator to determine a predicted correction signal based at least in part on a first set of samples of a correction signal that is a function of the external reference signal and which is used to discipline drift in the oscillator. The method further includes testing the mathematical model using a second set of samples of the correction signal to assess suitability of the trained mathematical model for generating a correction signal for controlling operation of the oscillator when the reference signal is not available.

    摘要: A synchronization transport network (100) for distributing a time reference between external clocks (103, 203, 104), comprises a first input node (110) connected to a first external master clock (103), a second input node (210) connected to a second external master clock (203), and an output node (120) connected to an external slave clock (104). The first and second input nodes (110, 210) record a time-of-arrival of a primary timestamp and forward the primary timestamp (141, 241) and the corresponding time-of-arrival to the output node (120). The first and second input nodes forward a clock status report (150, 250) to the output node. The output node processes the clock status reports from the first and second external master clocks so as to select one of external master clocks (103, 203) as a reference clock and generates a secondary timestamp (142) as a function of the primary timestamp received from the selected reference clock.
