In one example, a method includes receiving, from a CSAC, an indication of a difference between a phase of a GNSS 1PPS signal output by a GNSS receiver and a phase of a CSAC 1PPS signal. The method includes determining, with a Kalman filter, a phase error estimate and a frequency error estimate for the CSAC based on the difference between the phase of a GNSS 1PPS signal output by the GNSS receiver and the phase of the CSAC 1PPS signal. The method includes disciplining, with the Kalman filter, the CSAC using coarse synchronization commands and fine steer commands, wherein the coarse synchronization commands and the fine steer commands are based on the phase error estimate and the frequency error estimate for the CSAC. The method includes detecting GNSS spoofing based on the difference between the phase of the GNSS 1PPS signal and the phase of the CSAC 1PPS signal.

The present invention provides a high-reliability clock synchronization method for a micro PNT system based on CSAC. First, the 1pps signal of the CSAC and the 1pps signal of the GNSS are acquired in real time to calculate the clock difference signal. When the GNSS signal is valid, it is determined whether the clock difference signal is greater than a preset threshold. If it is greater than the threshold, the coarse adjustment function of the chip-level atomic clock is enabled. Otherwise, the following fine adjustment operation is performed. If the 1pps signal of the GNSS fails, the system will automatically enable the clock hold function, and predict and maintain the time accuracy of the CSAC through the extended Kalman filter method, ensuring that a high time synchronization accuracy can be maintained during the period when the GNSS signal is lost. Once the GNSS signal is restored, the system will exit the clock hold mode and re-synchronize with the GNSS. The present invention solves the clock synchronization problem between CSAC and GNSS, thereby ensuring high-precision time synchronization of the system and significantly enhancing the reliability of the system.
