Clock rate matching in independent networks

摘要

An apparatus and method for clock rate matching in independent networks is disclosed. The apparatus accepts data from a modem (126) into a buffer (400) and determines the difference between the rate of the data entering the buffer (400) at the modem clock rate to the rate of data exiting the buffer (400) at the clock rate used by the apparatus. Depending on the rate difference, the apparatus either speeds up or slows down the data rate accordingly.
