A method for time synchronization includes: receiving a message carrying time synchronization function information, the time synchronization function information being used for time synchronization of a station and an access point under multiple links; and controlling the time synchronization of the station and the access point under the multiple links by using the time synchronization function information.

Method and system for managing the reception of data frames, scheduled statically and periodically, a frame includes a header provided with an identifier (id) of the frame and an index (index) representing the occurrence of the frame in a hyper-period.

A system that synchronizes waveforms received over a network from one or more devices, such as medical devices. Because of network delays or losses, waveforms can arrive at varying rates and times. Precise post-synchronization of the received data, to within a few milliseconds, is needed for accurate analysis. Applications include automatic classification of waveforms, such as detection of myocardial infraction from heart monitor waveforms. Synchronization uses sequence numbers assigned by each device, but must also account for sequence number wraparounds. Waveforms may also be synchronized across devices, by calculating the bias between within-device synchronized times and a common time source or common disturbance. Waveform data may also be stored data in a database or data warehouse; embodiments may index the data using a key with a date-time prefix and a hash code suffix, to support distributed indexing while reducing the chance of hash collisions to a very small probability.

The present disclosure provides a method and apparatus for acquiring a timestamp of a data stream, a storage medium and an electronic apparatus. The method for acquiring the timestamp of the data stream includes: receiving a data stream to be transmitted, and acquiring a first frame header identifier of the data stream to be transmitted in a serializer-deserializer (SERDES) clock mode, the first frame header identifier being used for representing a position of a frame header of the data stream to be transmitted; determining, based on the first frame header identifier, a timestamp of the data stream to be transmitted under a system clock; encapsulating the timestamp to obtain a first target data frame; and outputting the first target data frame.

A system (100) comprising: a first unit (104) and one or more second units (104). The first unit (102) comprises: a timing reference (114) configured to provide a master-timing-reference-signal; a master time block configured to provide a master-time-signal (117) for the first unit (102) based on the master-timing-reference-signal; and a first interface (122) configured to: receive timestamped-processed-second-RF-signals from the one or more second units (104); and provide a first-unit-timing-signal (262) to the one or more second units (104) based on the master-time-signal. The one or more second units (104) each comprise: a slave time block (141) configured to: determine a slave-time-signal (142) for the second unit (104) based on the master-timing-reference-signal; determine one or more second-timing-values based on the slave-time-signal; determine an adjustment-time based on the first-unit-timing-signal received from the first unit (102) and the second-timing-values; and adjust the slave-time-signal based on the adjustment-time.

An aggregate cell of a cellular network includes a plurality of dispersed modular cells. The modular cells each include a cellular radio and collectively perform the function of a cellular base station. A distributed clock is established by transmitting timing beacons from one or more of the modular cells. Each modular cell receives the timing beacons. Each modular cell that transmits a timing beacon provides a transmission timestamp to a cell controller. Each modular cell that receives a timing beacon provides a reception timestamp to the cell controller. The cell controller schedules signal transmissions from the modular cells based on the transmission and reception timestamps.

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.
