A reference time associated with a satellite signal received at a clock synchronization source is determined, wherein the reference time is from a master reference clock. A recorded time associated with a corresponding satellite signal received at a remote clock synchronization destination is received from the remote clock synchronization destination via a network, wherein the received recorded time is from a remote clock to be synchronized with the master reference clock. A clock adjustment value is calculated based on a comparison of the determined reference time and the received recorded time. The clock adjustment value is provided to the remote clock synchronization destination, wherein the clock adjustment value is able to be utilized by the remote clock synchronization destination to adjust the remote clock to increase synchronization with the master reference clock.

A system and method are provided for data fusion between portable electronic devices and wearable accessories that is used to improve location information, particularly with respect to vertical location. A barometer sensor in a wearable accessory is used to obtain relative accurate height information, and an ultra wide band (UWB) radio is used to determine the distance between the wearable accessory and the portable electronic device. At a second timestamp, a barometer in a wearable device is used to calculate a difference in elevation between the first timestamp and the second timestamp. This measurement, along with a measured distance between the devices, can be used to accurately determine elevation. The wireless accessory and the portable electronic device communicate the obtained height and distance information. Accordingly, accurate navigation signals may be provided, even where multiple levels of roadways overlap, such as in parking garages or complex highway interchanges.
