Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to a time synchronization technology in the communication field, in particular to a time synchronization method and device for an asynchronous network of an optical transport network. Background technique
[0002] With the development of packet services, PTN (Packet Transport Network, Packet Transport Network) is rising day by day. It is not only suitable for multi-service bearer, but also can provide clock synchronization (synchronous Ethernet) and 1588 time synchronization functions, which can be very good Supports mobile backhaul features. However, if the services converged by the PTN equipment are transmitted through the existing OTN (Optical Transport Network, Optical Transport Network), it is necessary to consider the bearer mode of the OTN for time synchronization.
[0003] At present, OTN mainly supports the time transfer of PTN in the following three ways:
[0004] 1. The client signal transmits the 1588 protocol on the...
