The present invention is described in further detail below in conjunction with accompanying drawing.
Scheme of the present invention is mainly based on following prerequisite: the one, can obtain precise time information by the OMC of operation maintenance center (or RNC); The 2nd, there is direct Ethernet to connect between the OMC of operation maintenance center and radio network controller (RNC), the NodeB or IPOA connects, radio network controller (RNC) and NodeB have the IPOA passage;
The OMC of operation maintenance center with the WCDMA system provides time service centre's function, realizes the server of SNTP.It supports broadcast mode and Unicast (the point-to-point interacting message that carries out of server and client) mode to support point-to-multipoint and point-to-point application requirements situation simultaneously.
The client who realizes SNTP on RNC, the NodeB as each node in the WCDMA grid can initiatively require the acquisition time value by the Unicast mode, also can come the acquisition time value by the broadcasting of accepting server, carries out synchronously.
For the WCDMA network, can be presented as a tree-like structure, and time synchronized can adopt equally multistage mode to carry out.Provide initial time by a root node, next node layer with this root node as server, server end is intercepted the request of downstream site on designated port, and make and replying, or according to the mode of operation client fixed time broadcast temporal information on leaf node that disposes, promptly root node provides the temporal information service with broadcast mode or Unicast mode to leaf node.Lower level node can be re-used as more, and the time server of the node of lower floor provides temporal information.Carry out synchronously for multistage mode,, provide initial temporal information by the root node of OMC as tree.RNC generally can be used as the manager of a subnet (Access Network) in the network of WCDAM, administers a collection of NodeB, and like this for the time synchronized service, RNC can be used as the root node of subtree of the NodeB of administration, and the time service is provided.
RNC also can be used as the SNTP server of this subnet inside as the manager of subnet, accepts to come from the request of the acquisition time of the NodeB that has the IPOA connection under its administration, with it; Under the situation that has realized LANE, also can carry out temporal information broadcasting to these NodeB.
The SNTP agreement is followed in strictness on concrete implementation.Need all to intercept default UDP time serve port (123 port) as the OMC and the RNC of SNTP server; Support Broadcast mode and the Unieast mode of SNTP simultaneously; Wherein the Unicast mode is except that the transmission delay that can be used for can also be used to estimating the acquisition time value when carrying out time synchronized between network.
In the WCDMA network as SNTP client's RNC/NodeB finish set up with OMC/RNC between the IP link (NodeB can be set up with OMC between directly Ethernet to connect also can be to set up an IPOA<IP over ATM that arrives OMC via RNC passage, equally also can be the IPOA passage that is established to RNC) after, send repeatedly temporal information request to the SNTP server and carry out transmission delay estimation, and the influence of obtaining current precise time and removing propagation delay is with synchronous process of deadline.The temporal information that RNC/NodeB can also accept to broadcast in the time can carrying out subnet broadcast.
Network Transmission time-delay estimation volume when carrying out time synchronized can calculate according to timestamp information in the SNTP server time response message, calculate transmission delay, and be kept at this locality by Originate Timestamp T1, Receive Timestamp T2, Transmit Timestamp T3, four timestamp informations of Destination Timestamp T4.Transmission delay value estimation mode is as follows:
TDealy=(T4-T1)-(T2-T3)/2
Can be provided as the mode of operation of the OMC or the radio network controller (RNC) of SNTP server by the OMC of operation maintenance center, and parameter, comprise the airtime at interval, client is operated under the Unicast pattern regularly time interval to SNTP server requests temporal information, udp port that SNTP uses number etc.
After NodeB receives broadcast from RNC, take out time (Transmit Timestamp) field that wherein server message leaves server, and according to preserved and RNC between the transmission delay value calculate current time value, and modification local zone time.
Fig. 1 is the embodiment flow chart of the inventive method, according to the flow process of Fig. 1:
The present invention is in step 1, configuration interface by OMC is provided with the time synchronized parameter, and parameter item comprises: server and client mode are selected, whether RNC serves as that time server is selected, the broadcasting fixed time interval, when using udp port number, customer end adopted Unicast mode synchronously to time interval of server requests temporal information;
In step 2, the SNTP service on server start-up time (OMC is when RNC also comprises RNC during also as server);
In step 3,4,5, initiatively send a request message as RNC, the NodeB of client to time server, acquisition time information is also estimated the Network Transmission time-delay;
In step 6,7,8,9, and if used broadcast mode by server according to the fixed time interval broadcast time information that is provided with, obtain temporal information if use ad hoc mode then regularly initiate request according to the time interval of setting to server by client;
The precise time value that obtains server in step 10 client is removed the time synchronization process of finishing oneself after transmission delay influences;
Protocol specification according to NTP, broadcasting can be adopted broadcasting or multicast mode in the subnet, and the IP address of NTP group unique be 224.0.1.1, but because SNTP does not provide the server identity affirmation mechanism, therefore whether be the RNC that have the right in notice carry out time synchronized, should avoid using multicast and use the subnet directional broadcasting if can't identify.
