The embodiments herein relate to a method in a communications network comprising a
communications link connecting a first device to a second device. The communications link …

In the context of the IEEE 1588 Precision Time Protocol (PTP), estimating the delay's bias is
a problem that appears in both one-way (using transparent devices) or two-way message …

Precision Time Protocol (PTP) is a high precision time synchronization protocol designed to
run over a local area network. PTP, often referred to as 1588, is defined by the IEEE …

The intense diversity of the Next-Generation Networking environments like 6G and the
forthcoming deployment of immersive applications with varied user-specific requirements …

Provisioning of cost-effective Ethernet-based fronthaul by reusing the LAN infrastructure
available in most commercial buildings is challenging predominantly in terms of the required …

In this paper, we characterize the delay profile of an Ethernet cross-traffic network statically
loaded with one of the ITU-T network models and a larger Ethernet inline traffic loaded with …

Recent studies have shown that the delay distribution of IEEE 1588 synchronization traffic
varies with the characteristics and amount of the background traffic in the network, and …

The performance of wireless distributed systems is largely determined by the accuracy of
clock synchronization. However, most of the current high-precision clock synchronization …

IEEE 1588 is extended in its second version to enable correction for asymmetric paths by
measuring peer delay and residence time in transparent clock devices. However, these …

This paper presents a master redundancy technique for improving the availability of
synchronization in IEEE 1588. We propose a novel best master clock (BMC) algorithm to …
