Telecommunication SynchronizationBackground

Telecom Synchronization
Clock quality levels (stratum for North America and Types and Options for the International Telecommunication Union ITU) are defined by the industry standards organizations to maintain clock quality in the network Time sensitive services need synchronization Synchronization is important to avoid overflow or underflow of slip buffers, bit errors and other adverseeffects
– ITU-T Recommendation G.822 provides criteria for controlled slip rate

Standard Requirements
ITU-T recommendations, G.823 for E circuits andG.824 for T circuits set limits on the magnitude of jitter and wander at network interfaces. The wander may not exceed given values anywhere in the network. Thus, a circuit emulation link, for example, may consume only part of the wander budget GSM, WCDMA, and CDMA2000 require frequency accuracy of 0.05 ppm at air interface CDMA2000 requires time synchronization at ± 3 µs level (±10 µs worst case)WCDMA TDD mode requires 2.5-µs time accuracy between neighboring base stations (i.e. ±1.25 µs of UTC)
– These requirements are too difficult to achieve without good transparent clocks or boundary clocks in each intermediate node – Some cellular operators do have control over the transport network so they could use IEEE1588 compliant switches for achieving time synchronization
