Detailed Description
For the purpose of making the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention more apparent, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is apparent that the described embodiments are some embodiments of the present invention, but not all embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments, which can be made by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the invention without making any inventive effort, are intended to be within the scope of the invention.
The method for measuring the time noise transfer characteristic provided by the embodiment of the invention can be used for measuring the PTP time noise transfer characteristic and is suitable for an application scene shown in figure 1. The application scenario includes a plurality of network nodes 10 and a reference clock source 20, where each network node 10 locks a clock source signal (e.g., locks a clock source signal through a phase-locked loop) sent by the reference clock source 20, and the reference clock source 20 is, for example, a global positioning system (Global Positioning System, GPS) clock source, a beidou satellite navigation system clock source, or the like.
Each network node 10 may be used as a PTP master network node for distributing the synchronization time, or as a PTP slave network node for receiving the synchronization time. The PTP master network node and PTP slave network node are both based on the same reference clock source 20. The PTP obtains a reference clock signal from a clock source signal sent by the network node locking the reference clock source 20, locally generates noise at the slave network node, superimposes the noise on an original timestamp of the received master network node message, synchronizes a clock of the PTP master network node according to the timestamp after superimposing the noise to obtain a recovered clock signal carrying the noise, and compares the reference clock signal with the recovered clock signal carrying the noise to obtain gain of the time noise, namely, transfer information of the time noise between the PTP master network node and the PTP slave network node.
Fig. 2 is a flow chart of a method for measuring temporal noise transfer characteristics according to the present invention, which can be performed by any network node 10 in fig. 1, where the network node 10 acts as a slave network node, as shown in fig. 2, and includes:
101: a reference clock signal is acquired, the reference clock signal being obtained by locking a clock source signal.
A first locking unit may be provided on the network node 10, where the reference clock signal is obtained by locking the clock source signal sent by the reference clock source 20 by the first locking unit, for example a phase locked loop circuit.
102: and acquiring messages sent by other network nodes, generating noise, overlapping the noise to an original time stamp of the messages, synchronizing clocks of the other network nodes according to the time stamp after overlapping the noise, and obtaining a recovered clock signal carrying the noise, wherein the other network nodes also lock the clock source signal.
The method for obtaining the recovered clock signal is the prior art, and can be obtained by adopting a request response mechanism or an end delay mechanism based on the PTP protocol, and the request response mechanism is taken as an example to describe how to superimpose noise on the original timestamp of the message.
The master network node sends a Sync message to the slave network node, and records the sending time t1; after receiving the message from the network node, the receiving time t2 is recorded. After the main network node sends the Sync message, the main network node sends a Follow_Up message carrying t 1. The slave network node sends a delay_req message to the master network node, and records the sending time t3; after receiving the message, the master network node records the receiving time t4. After receiving the delay_req message, the master network node replies a delay_resp message carrying t4. At this time, the slave network node has four time stamps t1 to t4, and the total round trip delay [ (t 2-t 1) + (t 4-t 3) ] between the master network node and the slave network node can be calculated by using the four time stamps, and if the network is symmetrical, the time deviation between the slave network node and the master network node is [ (t 2-t 1) + (t 4-t 3) ]/2, so that the recovered clock of the synchronous master network node can be obtained.
According to whether the Follow_Up message needs to be sent or not, the request response mechanism is divided into a single-step mode and a double-step mode, wherein in the single-step mode, the sending time stamp t1 of the Sync message is carried by the Sync message, the Follow_Up message is not sent, and in the double-step mode, the sending time stamp t1 of the Sync message is carried by the Follow_Up message.
Taking a single-step mode as an example, local noise can be superimposed on a timestamp t1 or t2 of a Sync message, specifically, after receiving the Sync message from a network node, a value corresponding to the current phase of the local noise can be extracted at a suitable sampling rate (to satisfy a nessee-specific law), and the value is superimposed on t1 or t2. In other embodiments, locally generated noise may also be superimposed on t3 or t4.
The method for obtaining the recovered clock signal can be used for obtaining the recovered clock signal carrying the noise according to the time stamp after the noise is superimposed, and optionally, the recovered clock signal carrying the noise can be further filtered to filter the noise in the signal.
103: and obtaining noise transfer information between the other network nodes and the network nodes according to the reference clock signal and the recovered clock signal carrying noise.
And comparing the reference clock signal with the recovered clock signal carrying noise to obtain the transfer characteristic of the noise because the reference clock signal and the recovered clock signal carrying noise are based on the same clock source signal. Specifically, the time difference between the reference clock signal and the recovered clock signal carrying noise may be obtained first, and then each time difference may be sampled to obtain a time difference curve. And obtaining the peak value of the time difference curve, and comparing the peak value with original noise to obtain the gain of the noise, namely noise transfer information.
According to the embodiment of the invention, noise is locally generated at the slave network node, the noise is superimposed on the original timestamp of the received main network node message, and then the clock of the main network node is synchronized according to the tampered timestamp to obtain a recovered clock signal carrying the noise. The clock source signal is locked to obtain the reference clock signal, and because the slave network node and the master network node are both based on the same clock source signal, the gain of the noise, namely the noise transfer information from the master network node to the slave network node, can be obtained according to the reference clock signal and the recovered clock signal. The external expensive measuring instrument is not needed to measure the transfer characteristic of the time noise, and the cost is low. And the noise is generated by adopting a software mode, the noise type is not limited by an instrument, and various different noises can be simulated.
Further, after the noise transfer information is obtained, the noise transfer information may also be displayed to provide a reference, or parameters for filtering the recovered clock signal may be modified directly according to the noise transfer information. It is also possible to both display the noise transfer information and to correct the filter parameters at the same time. Referring to fig. 3, in some embodiments of the method, the method further comprises, in addition to 101, 102, and 103:
104: the noise transfer information is transmitted to a display device so that the display device displays the noise transfer information.
The display device may be a personal computer, a communication terminal, or the like.
105: and correcting the filtered parameters according to the noise transfer information.
And correcting the filtering parameters according to the noise transmission information so that the filtering algorithm can better filter noise in the recovered clock signal. In the prior art, a special instrument is adopted to measure the transmission characteristics of time noise, and a measurement result is at a measurement end and cannot be directly utilized by each PTP network node. The noise transmission information obtained by the embodiment of the invention can be transmitted to the PTP slave network node in real time, so that the slave network node can directly correct the filter parameters of the measured object to form closed loop control.
