ITU-T G.8263/Y.1363 (08/2017) FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the United Nations specialized agen

11、cy in the field of telecommunications, information and communication technologies (ICTs). The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of ITU. ITU-T is responsible for studying technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a view

12、to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The World Telecommunication Standardization Assembly (WTSA), which meets every four years, establishes the topics for study by the ITU-T study groups which, in turn, produce Recommendations on these topics. The approval of ITU-T Recommendatio

13、ns is covered by the procedure laid down in WTSA Resolution 1. In some areas of information technology which fall within ITU-Ts purview, the necessary standards are prepared on a collaborative basis with ISO and IEC. NOTE In this Recommendation, the expression “Administration“ is used for concisenes

14、s to indicate both a telecommunication administration and a recognized operating agency. Compliance with this Recommendation is voluntary. However, the Recommendation may contain certain mandatory provisions (to ensure, e.g., interoperability or applicability) and compliance with the Recommendation

15、is achieved when all of these mandatory provisions are met. The words “shall“ or some other obligatory language such as “must“ and the negative equivalents are used to express requirements. The use of such words does not suggest that compliance with the Recommendation is required of any party. INTEL

ITU takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of claimed Intellectual Property Rights, whe

23、ing functions of the packet slave clocks as defined in ITU-T G.8265. It supports frequency synchronization distribution when using packet-based methods. This Recommendation allows for proper network operation when a packet slave clock is timed from a packet master clock as defined in ITU-T G.8265. T

24、his Recommendation focuses on mobile applications, and in particular on the delivery of frequency synchronization for end applications, such as mobile base stations. It supports the architecture defined in ITU-T G.8265. Other applications are for further study. This Recommendation focuses on two dif

25、ferent deployment cases for the packet slave clock as follows. Packet slave clock embedded in a device co-located with the end application, as shown after the connection C1 in Figure 3 of ITU-T G.8261.1. Packet slave clock embedded within the end application, as shown after the connection C2 in Figu

26、re 3 of ITU-T G.8261.1. This second case is for further study for the first version of this Recommendation. Other deployment cases for the packet slave clock are for further study. This Recommendation focuses on the types of networks corresponding to the hypothetical reference models, HRM-1 and HRM-

27、2, defined in ITU-T G.8261.1. NOTE For long observation intervals, the packet-based equipment clock slave frequency (PEC-S-F) is expected to compensate for temperature variation effects; therefore, the output of the PEC-S-F will converge to the 1 ppb slope. The HRM-2 type of network is for further s

28、tudy for the first version of this Recommendation. Other types of networks are outside the scope of this Recommendation. This Recommendation defines the minimum requirements for the packet slave clocks. These requirements apply under the normal environmental conditions specified for the equipment. T

29、his Recommendation includes clock accuracy, packet delay variation (PDV) noise tolerance, holdover performance and noise generation. The start-up conditions (e.g., variable filtering bandwidth at start-up and stabilization period) are for further study. 2 References The following ITU-T Recommendatio

NOTE The time interval for this accuracy is for further study. Values of 1 month and 1 y

43、de r t e s tF r e qu e nc y r e f e r e nc e+Figure 1 Noise generation testing procedure It should be noted that packet-based equipment clocks slave frequency according to the architecture defined in ITU-T G.8265 (see Figure 1 of ITU-T G.8265) are not cascaded; therefore, specification of noise gene

44、ration produced at the output of the clock is not required when there is an ideal input reference signal. In fact, the applicable noise generation requirement is already covered by the specifications provided in clause 7 of this Recommendation. However, this specification is provided in order to ena

45、ble network operators to measure the noise produced by the PEC-S-F under ideal conditions, separately from the scenarios where PDV is applied (PDV noise tolerance testing). The maximum time interval error (MTIE) is measured through an equivalent 10 Hz, first-order, low-pass measurement filter, at a

46、maximum sampling time of 1/30 s. 4 Rec. ITU-T G.8263/Y.1363 (08/2017) 6.1 Packet-based equipment clock slave frequency When the PEC-S-F is in the locked mode of operation, synchronized to a PDV free reference, and its MTIE output is measured using the same reference as the packet master clock which

47、generated the PTS, the MTIE should have the limits described in Table 1, if the temperature is constant (within 1 K).

Figure 2 Wander generation (maximum time interval error) for packet-based equipment clock slave frequency NOTE For long observation intervals, the PEC

49、-S-F is expected to compensate for temperature variation effects; therefore, the output of the PEC-S-F will converge to the 1 ns/s slope. When temperature effects are included, the limits are given in Table 2.
