Abstract

The invention provides a time synchronization method and apparatus. The method comprises the following steps: establishing a transmission path from each slave device network node to a master device network node, so that optical wavelengths corresponding to each transmission path are mutually different optical wavelengths; and controlling to load the synchronization information of each slave devicenetwork node on an optical wavelength signal of the corresponding optical wavelength, and transmitting the optical wavelength signal on the transmission path, wherein when the network nodes by whichthe transmission path passes comprise the master device network node, the slave device network nodes and at least one intermediate device network node, in a transmission process of the optical wavelength signal, the intermediate device network node forwards the received optical wavelength signal on an optical layer. As the intermediate device network node of the transmission path does not need toperform photoelectric conversion processing when receiving the optical wavelength signal carrying the synchronization information and directly forwards the optical wavelength signal on the optical layer, a time error imported by the intermediate device network node by performing the photoelectric conversion processing on the optical wavelength signal can be avoided.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of the Internet, in particular to a time synchronization method and device. Background technique [0002] TD-SCDMA, CDMA2000, TD-LTE and other mobile communication systems have time synchronization requirements, and the base stations need to meet microsecond-level time synchronization, otherwise, it will cause base station interference and call connections cannot be established. In order to solve the problem of time synchronization, the high-precision time synchronization network sets up a time server upstream, and transmits time information step by step through intermediate nodes, and distributes time information to end base stations. The time transfer protocol usually adopts the IEEE PTP (Precise Time Synchronization) protocol. [0003] In the prior art, when the synchronization network is processed by intermediate nodes at each level, the intermediate nodes extract the time synchronization message, proce...
