SELECT THE SOURCE SYNCHRONIZATION DEVICE-TO-DEVICE Russian patent published in 2018 - IPC H04J3/06 

FIELD: communication.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to a communication technique and can be used to select a synchronization source among various synchronization sources. For this sources, determining the synchronization signal from the network, such as base stations, net nodes or user facility, which receive the synchronization signal possibly through other hops from the base station, and further include sources, which do not determine their synchronization signal from the network. Choice of the synchronization source is performed by selecting the source with the most reliable synchronization signal based on the value, calculated for each of the considered sources. In particular, the indicator is based on the type of source, the number of hops between the network and the source and / or quality of the received signal. After the selection of the source of clocking devices being adapted accordingly.

EFFECT: technical result consists in increasing the reliability of the communication by adapting the timing of the device.
