PHASE SYNCHRONIZATION OF NODES IN A TELECOMMUNICATION NETWORK

摘要

To phase synchronize from node to node according to a treelike phase distribution network (DSP) using the infrastructure of a telecommunication network (RT), a first node (Nm) transfers to a second node (Ne) an item of phase information substantially in phase with a phase reference internal to the first node and a signalling of position of the phase information with respect to component elements, such as bits, of a data signal (SD) transported by a link (LTme) connecting the nodes. The position signalling can be the number of component element separating it from the phase information in a packet. A lag in transferring the phase information through the link is compensated for precisely.
