SYNC develops and recommends standards and solutions related to telecommunications network technology pertaining to network timing and synchronization. This includes those functions and characteristics necessary to define and establish:
- Synchronization between networks and areas concerned with network time/phase/frequency characteristics that require theoretical, analytical and empirical investigations to ensure that solutions meet the highest norms of technical integrity and completeness; and
- Distribution of timing signals in wireless and wireline networks and systems along with their requirements for services.
Highlights
- SYNC is examining GNSS vulnerability and alternatives for time and frequency synchronization in environments where GNSS is unavailable.
