Abstract

In this paper we propose a new conceptual slave clock system in which remotely located clock is synchronized to the reference clock by intermediation of the satellite time, show a probability of adoption to real network by experiments. This new proposed method has lots of structural advantages over the existing methods because all of the node clocks can be maintained with the same hierarchical quality. The measurement results show that the accuracy of the experimental slave clock system can be kept within a few parts in 1012 and that the MTIE (Maximum Time Interval Error) meets the ITU-T Recommendation G.811 for the primary reference clock A prototype system having fully automatic operational functions has been realized, and it is expected to be commercially used as a node clock for synchronization in the digital communication network in the near future.

본 논문에서 위성신호를 매개로 원격지의 로컬클럭이 기준신호에 동기되는 새로운 개념의 슬레이브를럭 시스템을 제안하였으며 이 방식에 의한 실용화 가능성을 확인하였다. 새로이 제시하는 방식은 단계적인 물리계층에 의해 동기되던 기존의 방식에 비해 모든 슬레이브 국소들이 동일한 계위의 품질로 유지될 수 있는 등의 여러 가지 구조적인 장점을 지니고 있다. 슬레이브클럭 시스템의 측정결과 10-12 수준의 주파수정확도를 유지하였으며 ITU-T의 권고(G.811)를 만족하는 MTIE 특성을 보여주었다. 현재 전체적으로 자동화기능을 갖는 초기모델이 구현되었으며 가까운 시일 내에 상용화연구를 통해 통신망 동기용 노드클릭으로 사용될 수 있으리라 기대한다.
