A method of synchronization between downhole components includes: generating a dual tone synchronization signal by a signal generator in a first downhole component disposed in a borehole in an earth formation, the dual tone signal including a first constituent periodic signal having a first frequency f1 and a second constituent periodic signal having a second frequency f2 that is different from the first frequency; transmitting the synchronization signal to a second downhole component disposed in the borehole; receiving the synchronization signal by a signal processor in the second downhole component, calculating a phase difference between the first constituent signal and the second constituent signal, and calculating a transmission delay based on the phase difference; and synchronizing operation of the first and second downhole components based on the delay. |
