Synchronization system using aging prediction

摘要

An improved local synchronization module which uses Frequency-phase adaptive double locked loop (FPADLL) to control a stable controllable oscillator is disclosed. A single physical feedback loop is implemented which can operate in either a phase locked loop mode or a frequency locked loop mode. The sync module includes a controller which determines in which mode the feedback loop operates. The controller also uses slipping information from a network reference recovery interface to reduce slipping. Also effects of ageing of the stable controllable oscillator are predicted and compensated for.
