Abstract

As telecommunications networks transition from TDM to IP packet technologies, network timing and synchronization will need to evolve to support the new IP-based infrastructure. Work is already underway within the standards bodies and working groups to develop equivalent mechanisms to support packet-based synchronization technologies. These may be at the Layer 1 level with physical layer synchronization, at the Layer 2 level with Ethernet switched technologies, or the Layer 3 level with IP routed technologies. In addition, to examining existing technologies, this paper presents a detail discussion of the emerging timing and synchronization technologies available for wireless base stations and mobile backhaul.
