A pseudolite is used as a GPS backup system, and is also used for the purpose of indoor navigation and correction information transmission. It is installed on the ground, and transmits signals that are similar to those of a GPS satellite. In addition, in recent years, studies on the improvement of positioning accuracy using the pseudorange measurement of a pseudolite have been performed. As for the effect of the time synchronization error between a pseudolite and a GPS satellite, a time synchronization error of 1 us generally induces a pseudorange error of 300 m; and to achieve meter-level positioning, ns-level time synchronization between a pseudolite and a GPS satellite is required. Therefore, for the operation of a pseudolite, a time synchronization algorithm between a GPS satellite and a pseudolite is essential. In this study, for the time synchronization of a pseudolite, "a pseudolite time synchronization method using the time source of UTC (KRIS)" and "a time synchronization method using a GPS timing receiver" were introduced; and the time synchronization performance depending on the pseudolite time source and reference time source was evaluated by designing a software-based pseudolite time synchronization performance evaluation simulation platform.

In this paper, We proposed an development method of application framework for using the precision time protocol(PTP) based on physical layer devices to synchronize clocks across a network with IEEE1588 capable devices. The algorithm was not designed as a complete solution across all conditions, but is intended to show the feasibility of such a for the PTP(Precision Time Protocol) based on time synchronization of heterogeneous network between devices that support in IEEE 1588 Standard application framework. With synchronization messages per second, the system was able to accurately synchronize across a single heavily loaded switch. we describes a method of synchronization that provides much more accurate synchronization in systems with larger networks. In this paper, using the IEEE 1588 PTP support for object-oriented modeling techniques through the 'application framework development Development(AFDM)' is proposed. The method described attempts to detect minimum delays, or precision packet probe and packet metrics. The method also takes advantage of the Tablet PC(Primary to Secondary) clock control mechanism to separately control clock rate and time corrections, minimizing overshoot or wild swings in the accuracy of the clock. We verifying the performance of PTP Systems through experiments that proposed method.

We propose a system time synchronization method between embedded Linux-based distributed control devices by using Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) communication and General Purpose Input Output (GPIO) device. The GPIO signal is used as the trigger signal for synchronization and the TCP communication is used to transfer the system time of master Linux, which serves as the reference clock, to slave Linux. Precise synchronization performance is achieved by measuring and compensating for the propagation delay of GPIO signal and the acquisition and setting latency of Linux system time. We build an experimental setup consisting of two embedded Linux systems, and perform extensive experiments to verify the performance of the proposed synchronization method.

In this paper, we present a comparative performance evaluation of the sampling frequency synchronization method that eliminates the initial sampling frequency offset (SFO) to reduce the overall synchronization time in Digital Radio Mondiale (DRM) receivers. To satisfy the advanced synchronization performance requirements of DRM receivers, we introduce the conventional DRM synchronization method (Method 1) and another method (Method 2), which does not perform the initial sampling frequency synchronization in the conventional synchronization method (both methods are mentioned later in this paper). To demonstrate the effectiveness of the performance evaluation, analytical expressions for frame detection are derived and simulations are provided. Based on the simulations and numerical analysis, our result shows that Method 2, with a negligible performance loss, is robust to the effects of the initial sampling frequency synchronization even if SFO is present in the DRM signal. In addition, we verify that the inter-cell differential correlation used between reference cells is robust to the effect of the initial SFO.

신호수신장치들간 시각 동기화는 TDoA를 이용한 위치 탐지에 있어 가장 중요한 전제 사항이 된다. 본 논문에서는 시스템의 시각동기 정확도를 위하여 고정밀도의 OCXO와 DPLL을 이용하여 원자 클럭을 사용하는 GPS 위성으로부터 수신되는 1 pps(pulse per second) 신호에 위상동기 되는 방식을 제안한다. GPS 기반 고정밀 타이밍 레퍼런스의 성능은 근본적으로 매우 우수한 장기간에 걸친 주파수 안정도(long-term frequency stability)를 갖는 GPS 타이밍 신호의 특성을 따라간다고 볼 수 있으며, GPS 타이밍 신호에 동기가 되면 0.001 ppb(part per billion) 급의 초정밀 타이밍 레퍼런스를 통해 시각 동기의 정확도를 향상시킨다. 제안하는, 향상된 시각 동기 정확도를 통해 TDoA 기반의 위치 탐지 기술에서의 측정 오차를 평가하고, 시각동기 오차 개선 방법이 TDoA 기반의 위치 측정 오차를 크게 개선함을 보인다.

TPSN(Timing-sync Protocol for Sensor Networks), the representative of time synchronization protocol, has been already developed to provide time synchronization among nodes in wireless sensor networks. Even though the TPSN's method has been referenced by so many other time synchronization schemes for resource-constrained networks like wireless sensor networks or low power personal area networks, it has some inefficiency in terms of power consumption and network-wide synchronization time (or called convergence time). The main reason is that each node in TPSN needs waiting delay to solve the collision problem due to simultaneous transmission among competing nodes, which causes more power consumption and longer network convergence time for a network-wide synchronization. In this paper an improved scheme is proposed by changing message exchange method among nodes. The proposed scheme not only shortens network-wide synchronization time, but also reduce collision traffic which lead to needless power consumption. The proposed scheme's performance has been evaluated and compared with an original scheme by simulation. The results are shown to be better than the original algorithm used in TPSN.

In the real-time delivery of multimedia data streams over networks, the interruption of continuity in a single media stream and the mismatching of the data within the same time interval in multimedia data streams transfered in paralled on different channels are considered as the most serious synchronization problems. There are several mechanisms proposed to handle these problems. In this paper, these mechanisms are analyzed and compared in various point of view by the computer simulation. According to the simulation results, it has been shown that the method which uses the segmentation and the method which uses the seperate synchronization channel are superior to the method which uses the synchronization marks in view of the real-time transmission and quality of sevice. On the other hand, it can be seen that the method which uses the segmentation is superior to the method which uses the seperate synchronization channel from a channel utilization's point of view.
