Concepts of Clock Synchronization
What is a clock? A clock is a device that generates time signals. Clock signals involve the reference specifications such as frequency, period, jitter, and wander.
What is synchronization? Synchronization refers to that two signals appear or disappear in the same state at the same moment. Clock synchronization refers to that all the devices on the network operate at the same rate.

Modes of Clock Synchronization

Frequency synchronization
Clock A
The signals remain a relative relationship in frequency and phase. The corresponding valid instances appear at the same average rate.
Clock B
As shown in Figure 1, clock B is six hours later than clock A. Clock synchronization generally refers to frequency synchronization.
Figure 1
Time synchronization
Clock A
The signals remain a consistent relationship in frequency and phase. The phase of a clock is expressed in value, that is, moment. As shown in Figure 2, clock B and clock A remain the same in time at any moment.

Transmit end: E1 signals are loaded into container C through bit adjustment, multiplexed into high-speed signals, and sent out at the system clock frequency f at the transmit end. (On the OptiX RTN equipment , the E1 retiming function needs to be enabled on the part as shown in the figure.) Receive end: E1 signals are demultiplexed from container C by eliminating bit adjustment. The features of E1 signals
remain the same. The OptiX RTN equipment extracts and traces E1 clocks to achieve clock synchronization , as shown on the dotted-line part. Advantages: The principles and technologies are simple, facilitating the transparent transmission of clocks. Disadvantages: Multiplexing and demultiplexing cause signal deterioration, which affects the transmission of high traffic. Note: The traditional PDH network is a pseudo synchronous network. It does not need to extract clocks or support the E1 retiming function.

Receive end: The clock signal f is recovered from the STM-N services, and sent to the system clock unit. The signals are considered as the system clock of the local NE and send out (as shown on NE A) to achieve the frequency synchronization between NE A and NE B. Advantages: This technology is widely used and can meet the synchronization requirements of the SDH transmission network.

Receive end: The clock signal f is recovered from the STM-N services, and sent to the system clock unit.

Advantages: This technology is widely used and can meet the synchronization requirements of the Ethernet transmission network. Disadvantages: The precision of the SDH clock synchronization technology is not high, and can only reach the
millisecond level. Note: The processing of synchronous Ethernet is similar to the processing of the SDH synchronization. The difference is that the service stream is the Ethernet service stream but not the STM-N service stream.

OC model: only one port supports the transmission and extraction of IEEE 1588 V2 packets, and can either be the source or sink of the packets. BC model: multiple ports support the IEEE 1588 V2 packets. To be specific, one port extracts and terminates the IEEE 1588 V2 packets, and the other ports generate and send out the new IEEE 1588 V2 packets. The BC contains the source and sink of the IEEE 1588 V2 packets. TC model: processes the delay and transparently transmits clocks. The model does not extract and recover clocks. Two NEs perform the relevant calculation based on the time stamps in the packets to achieve time synchronization.

The master clock transmits the synchronization packet at the moment t1, and the slave clock receives the packet at the moment t2 and obtains the time t1. The slave clock transmits the delay request packet at the moment t3, and the master clock receives the packet 2 at the moment t4 and obtains the time t2. Compute the trail delay and offset, and correct the time of the slave clock. Delay = (t1 + t2)/2 Offset = (t1 - t2)/2 Advantage: supports time synchronization, and is slightly associated with the PSN. The packets are transmitted
independently, which is irrelevant to service transmission. Disadvantage: All the equipment on the link needs to support the IEEE 1588 V2 protocol.

Transmit end: transmits the synchronization packets 1, 2, and 3 at the frequency f with time stamps t1, t1', and t1'' respectively. Receive end: receives the synchronization packets 1, 2, and 3, and records the arrival times t2, t2', and t2''. Due
to the impact of different delays, t1, t2, and t3 may be different. However, the received end adds different weights for the time stamps to achieve frequency synchronization. Advantage: The clock synchronization is of good quality, and the protocol is standardized to support the interconnection of equipment from different vendors. Disadvantage: only supports frequency synchronization but not time synchronization, and is easily affected by the PDV.

Q: How does the third-party clock traverse a network consisting of the OptiX

A: This is similar to the solution for the clock of the OptiX RTN equipment traversing the third-party network. Two factors need to be considered: (1) the bearer mode of the clock; (2) whether the clock meets the requirement of the third-party network after traversing a network consisting of the OptiX RTN equipment.
