Embedded SynUTC and IEEE 1588 clock synchronization for industrial Ethernet
نویسندگان
چکیده
This article deals with two mechanisms for time synchronization over Ethernet networks, the “IEEE 1588 standard for a precision clock synchronization protocol for networked measurement and control systems” and the “synchronized universal time coordinated” technology. It presents a prototype system, which supports both synchronization mechanisms by offering dedicated hardware support on Ethernet network nodes and Ethernet Switches respectively. Finally the two technologies will be compared with respect to some key properties.

High Precision Clock Synchronization according to IEEE 1588 Implementation and Performance Issues
A high precision time base is important for distributed systems in measurement and automation applications. The Precision Time Protocol (PTP) specified in IEEE 1588 [1] is able to synchronize distributed clocks with an accuracy of less than one microsecond. It is applicable in multicast capable network technologies such as Ethernet LANs. The mechanism combines high accuracy and fast convergence...

متن کاملIEEE 1588 Real-Time Networks with Hybrid Master Group Enhancements
The widespread clock synchronization standard, IEEE 1588, is purely master-slave based. The inherent disadvantage is, that a failure of the master requires the election of a new one, during which the network nodes cannot be synchronized. The present paper proposes a compatible extension to the standard introducing an architecture for fault-tolerant and seamless distribution of time information....
