  2. Clock synchronization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clock_synchronization

    Such clock synchronization is used in synchronization in telecommunications and automatic baud rate detection. [2] Plesiochronous or isochronous operation refers to a system with frequency synchronization and loose constraints on phase synchronization. Synchronous operation implies a tighter synchronization based on time perhaps in addition to ...

  3. Synchronous Ethernet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synchronous_Ethernet

    The aim of Synchronous Ethernet is to provide a synchronization signal to those network resources that may eventually require such a type of signal. The Synchronous Ethernet signal transmitted over the Ethernet physical layer should be traceable to an external clock, ideally a master and unique clock for the whole network.

  4. Time-division multiple access - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time-division_multiple_access

    Synchronization challenges: TDMA requires precise synchronization between all users to ensure that each user transmits within their designated time slot. This can complicate system design and implementation, especially in dynamic environments where users may frequently join or leave the network.

  5. Synchronization in telecommunications - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synchronization_in...

    Telecommunication networks rely on the use of highly accurate primary reference clocks which are distributed network-wide using synchronization links and synchronization supply units. Ideally, clocks in a telecommunications network are synchronous, controlled to run at identical rates, or at the same mean rate with a fixed relative phase ...

  6. Comparison of synchronous and asynchronous signalling

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_synchronous...

    The need for synchronization [ edit ] Whenever an electronic device transmits digital (and sometimes analogue) data to another, there must be a certain rhythm established between the two devices, i.e., the receiving device must have some way of, within the context of the fluctuating signal that it's receiving, determining where each unit of ...

  7. Network Time Protocol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_Time_Protocol

    The Network Time Protocol (NTP) is a networking protocol for clock synchronization between computer systems over packet-switched, variable-latency data networks. In operation since before 1985, NTP is one of the oldest Internet protocols in current use. NTP was designed by David L. Mills of the University of Delaware.

  8. Code-division multiple access - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code-division_multiple_access

    To permit this without undue interference between the users, CDMA employs spread spectrum technology and a special coding scheme (where each transmitter is assigned a code). [1] [2] CDMA optimizes the use of available bandwidth as it transmits over the entire frequency range and does not limit the user's frequency range.

  9. Time-division multiplexing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time-division_multiplexing

    Time-division multiplexing (TDM) is a method of transmitting and receiving independent signals over a common signal path by means of synchronized switches at each end of the transmission line so that each signal appears on the line only a fraction of time according to agreed rules, e.g. with each transmitter working in turn.
