Abstract

The invention discloses a method and a device for improving the synchronization precision among multiple clocks, and the device comprises multi-source clock equipment which comprises a plurality of hardware clocks. The method comprises the following steps: based on a precise synchronous clock protocol, synchronizing a certain hardware clock in multi-source clock equipment with main clock equipmentin a network; configuring the synchronized hardware clock, triggering a PPS signal, and providing a clock synchronization signal source for other hardware clock sources in the multi-source clock device; obtaining counting information of a synchronized hardware clock source when the PPS signal is generated, and calculating real characteristics of the synchronized hardware clock source; and correcting the synchronized hardware clock source in the multi-source clock equipment so as to achieve clock synchronization among multiple clocks in the equipment. According to the method, the defect that time is obtained through CPU interruption traditionally is overcome, a hardware mode is adopted, nanosecond-level synchronization is achieved among multiple clocks in the equipment, and the synchronization precision is high.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of network communication systems, in particular to a method and device for improving synchronization accuracy between multiple clocks. Background technique [0002] The network clock synchronization technology is extremely important for time-sensitive networks. For example, during the live broadcast of a large-scale event, video and audio data must be transmitted and processed in high real-time; driverless technology needs to complete real-time processing of various complex signals. Therefore, clock synchronization technology is the basis of such real-time applications. [0003] Such as figure 1 As shown, a device generally containing multiple clocks is mainly composed of a configuration management CPU and a switching chip for data forwarding. There are two sets of hardware clocks in this system, namely hardware clock 1 (the hardware clock of the CPU) and hardware clock 2 (the clock in the exchange chip)....
