    摘要: Apparatus and methods relating to synchronization of communication equipment are disclosed. Synchronization information received from a bonded communication link can be used to synchronize local and/or remote communication equipment, such as femtocell sites coupled to nodes in a ring network. This may involve isolating a frequency reference signal from a DSL (Digital Subscriber Line) communication link which is a constituent link of a bonded communication link, for example. In a ring network, received synchronization information could be used in synchronizing a locally connected installation of communication equipment, and passed for transmission in the ring network for synchronizing other communication equipment. Such dropping and passing of an analog frequency reference signal could be applied in networks having other topologies as well. At least some embodiments of the invention are applicable to optical links. One or more dedicated wavelengths of an optical link could be used to transfer a frequency reference signal, for example. Other functions, such as quality monitoring, quality reporting, and/or predictive traffic forwarding may be provided in some embodiments.

    摘要: A method of frame decoding a series data flow having a frame structure containing an item of periodically occurring synchronizing information, employs a frame recognition circuit, which is synchronized to the item of synchronizing information and is coupled to a frame generator. After a predetermined number of synchronous coincidences of the item of synchronizing information and a synchronizing signal emitted from the frame generator, the frame recognition circuit and frame generator are decoupled. During synchronous coincidence, a weighting counter is periodically increased by a predetermined amount, and in the case of non-coincidence it is periodically reduced by a predetermined amount. Resynchronization takes place only when the count of the weighting counter has reached its maximum value and the frame recognition circuit is synchronized to a new item of synchronizing information.

    摘要: A time division multiplex system includes a status channel as well as a plurality of information channels and a frame synchronization channel in each frame. A submultiplexer combines a "winking" framing pulse with four different status signals to derive a four-state code. One state of the code contains a "winking" submultiplexer framing signal, and the other states transmit status information to control system alarm and restoral conditions.

    摘要: A holdover mode device is illustrated. When a time synchronization source is not abnormal, a digital PLL uses a time synchronization source as its input clock, and a measurement and adjustment module calculates a variation of a frequency difference between the time synchronization source and a reference clock output by an adjustable oscillator, and builds a frequency difference prediction model according to the variation of the frequency difference. When the time synchronization source is abnormal, the digital PLL uses a buffered time synchronization source as its input clock, and the measurement and adjustment module uses the frequency difference prediction model to calculate a predicted variation of the frequency difference according to buffered frequency difference values, and generates an adjustment signal for adjusting the reference clock according to the predicted variation of the frequency difference.

    摘要: A baseline difference is determined between a slave line card time stamp corresponding to a slave line card frame sync signal and a master line card time stamp corresponding to a master line card frame sync signal. The slave line card generates subsequent slave line card time stamps for subsequent slave line card frame sync signals and the master line card generates subsequent master line card time stamps for subsequent master line card frame sync signals. Current differences are determined between subsequent slave line card time stamps and the subsequent master line card time stamps and the current differences are compared to the baseline difference. When a mismatch difference occurs (current difference differs from the baseline difference), the mismatch difference causes a phase-locked loop in the master line card to be adjusted or an offset to be provided to the master line card time of day counter.
