Fig. 7 is a flowchart of a clock synchronization method according to an embodiment of the present invention, and referring to fig. 7, a GPS module is started first. After the submarine seismograph is started and a microprocessor control circuit (MCU) is ensured to work normally, a GPS module power supply is started, and the GPS module is started to wait for the GPS module to acquire a correct standard Pulse Per Second (PPS) signal and a Universal Time Clock (UTC).
And then, the microprocessor control circuit acquires the standard second pulse signal and the world time signal provided by the GPS module for a plurality of times and determines that the GPS module is stable according to the correct signals of the standard second pulse signal and the world time signal which are acquired for a plurality of times. The serial port information provided by the GPS module is provided with an identifier for judging whether the signal is correct or not, and the microprocessor control circuit confirms whether the standard second pulse signal and the world time signal provided by the GPS module are correct or not by judging the identifier, and the microprocessor control circuit acquires the correct standard second pulse signal and the world time signal for more than 10 times so as to ensure the stability of the GPS module.

The microprocessor control circuit acquires a first real-time clock signal according to the arrival time of a first falling edge of the standard second pulse signal, and the first real-time clock signal is accurate to a microsecond level. The microprocessor control circuit judges whether the first falling edge of the standard second pulse signal comes or not, and when the microprocessor control circuit captures the first falling edge of the standard second pulse signal, the microprocessor control circuit reads the first real-time clock signal at the moment, and the first real-time clock signal is accurate to a microsecond level and stored.
The microprocessor control circuit acquires a second real-time clock signal according to the arrival time of a second falling edge of the standard second pulse signal, and the second real-time clock signal is accurate to a microsecond level; the first falling edge and the second falling edge are adjacent two falling edges of the standard second pulse signals.

And judging whether the standard pulse-per-second signal is a continuous pulse signal according to the time difference value of the second real-time clock signal and the first real-time clock signal, and calculating the pulse error between the pulse-per-second signal and the standard pulse-per-second signal when the standard pulse-per-second signal is the continuous pulse signal. Wherein if the values differ by one second this two PPS intervals are consecutive. The microprocessor control circuit makes a difference between the time of the second real-time clock signal and the time of the first real-time clock signal to judge whether the difference is one second, if the microprocessor control circuit judges that the time difference between the second real-time clock signal and the first real-time clock signal is one second, the microprocessor control circuit judges that the standard second pulse signal is a continuous pulse signal, otherwise, the standard second pulse signal is not the continuous pulse signal, and at the moment, the first real-time clock signal needs to be acquired again according to the arrival time of the first falling edge of the standard second pulse signal. If the standard pulse per second signal is a continuous pulse signal, at the moment, the error below the second precision of the pulse per second signal and the standard pulse per second signal or the error below the millisecond level is the actual error of the system time of the submarine seismograph and the world standard time, and the pulse error between the pulse per second signal and the standard pulse per second signal is calculated through a counter.
The pulse error is added to the real time clock signal. The pulse error number is increased to a pulse counter in a real-time clock (RTC), so that the error between the time of a real-time clock signal and a standard second pulse signal is eliminated, the time synchronization of the real-time clock signal and the time below the world standard time millisecond level is completed, the GPS module is closed after the time synchronization is completed, and the energy consumption is reduced.
According to the technical scheme, the frequency division method is adopted to divide the main clock signal to obtain the seismic data acquisition clock signal and the real-time clock signal, so that the problem of inter-module time disorder caused by the fact that each module of the submarine seismograph uses an independent clock crystal oscillator in the prior art is solved, the submarine seismograph has higher time accuracy and lower power consumption, and the effectiveness of seismic data is ensured. The technical scheme of the embodiment of the invention also provides the standard second pulse signal and the world clock signal for calibration synchronization by the real-time clock signal and the second pulse signal with the GPS module, so that microsecond synchronization of the system time of the submarine seismograph and the world standard time is realized, the time error of the system time of the submarine seismograph and the world standard time is up to 30us, the design requirement of accurate synchronization of the error within 1ms is ensured to be met, the seismic data of the submarine seismograph and the seismic data of other stations can be compared and analyzed, and more accurate data analysis among different submarine seismograph stations in the same put batch is ensured.
