Embodiment 1

[0027] Embodiment 1. A method for obtaining an asymmetric delay time, comprising: obtaining the residence time T1 of a message in a sending FIFO buffer of a physical layer of a device, and obtaining a receiving FIFO of the message at the physical layer of the device. The dwell time T2 in the buffer; the asymmetrical delay time is obtained according to the sum of the difference between the T1 and T2, the inherent delay time of the physical layer and the transmission line delay time.

[0028] The process of this method is attached figure 1 shown.

[0029] figure 1 In S100, the residence time T1 of the message (for example, the message with a time stamp) in the transmit FIFO buffer of the physical layer of the device is obtained. The device here is a slave device or a responder, etc., specifically, a base station or the like. The above-mentioned transmit FIFO buffer may be a synchronous FIFO (that is, the read clock and the write clock of the transmit FIFO buffer are t...

example 1

[0074] Example 1, as attached Figure 2A The illustrated first acquisition module 220 includes: a first timestamp sub-module 221 , a first acquisition depth sub-module 222 , a first count sub-module 223 and a first calculation sub-module 224 . The first counting sub-module 223 includes the first counter described in the foregoing method embodiments.

[0075] The first timestamp submodule 221 is configured to add a timestamp to the event packet when the event packet is sent from the MAC layer to the physical layer. This timestamp is carried in the event message. The first timestamp submodule 221 may be located at the MAC layer, that is, when the first timestamp submodule 221 detects that the MAC layer sends an event packet to the physical layer, it adds a timestamp to the event packet. The first timestamp submodule 221 may also be located at the physical layer, that is, when the first timestamp submodule 221 detects that the physical layer receives an event packet transm...

Abstract

The invention discloses method and device for acquiring asymmetric delay time. The method comprises steps of: acquiring a dwell time T1 of a message in a sending first-in first-out buffer of a device physical layer and acquiring a dwell time T2 of the message in a receiving first-in first-out buffer of the device physical layer; and acquiring the asymmetric delay time according to the sum of the difference value of the T1 and T2, the fixed delay time of the physical layer and the delay time of a transmission line. The technical scheme of the invention can accurately and conveniently acquire the asymmetric delay time of network devices, thereby lowering the realizing cost of time synchronization and improving the efficiency of time synchronization.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of communication, in particular to a technology for obtaining asymmetric delay time. Background technique [0002] IEEE1588V2 is a precise time synchronization protocol, which can be called PTP (Precision TimeProtocol, Precision Time Protocol). PTP achieves time synchronization through message transmission between devices (eg, between master and slave devices or between a requester and a responder). [0003] At present, delay asymmetry exists in the communication link due to reasons such as PHY (physical) layer chips, that is, the delay time from the first device to the second device is different from the delay time from the second device to the first device. When the first device is a master device, the second device is a slave device, and when the first device is a requester, the second device is a responder. For the delay asymmetry link, the time synchronization method proposed by PTP to compens...
