Parameter Configuration Method, Device, and System - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17965117 titled 'Parameter Configuration Method, Device, and System

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a method, device, and system for managing clock synchronization in a network system. Here is a simplified explanation of the abstract:

  • The management device determines the first transmission path used to transmit a clock packet from a target clock source in the network system.
  • The management device sends configuration information for the first transmission path to multiple network devices on that path.
  • The management device receives information from an endpoint network device on the first transmission path, which is used to determine the time difference.
  • Based on this information, the management device sends a clock compensation value to at least one network device on the first transmission path.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Clock synchronization in telecommunications networks
  • Time-sensitive applications such as financial trading systems or real-time video streaming
  • Industrial automation systems requiring precise timing

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Ensuring accurate clock synchronization across multiple network devices
  • Minimizing time differences that can cause data loss or synchronization issues
  • Simplifying the management and configuration of clock synchronization in a network system

Benefits of this technology:

  • Improved accuracy and reliability of clock synchronization in network systems
  • Simplified configuration and management processes
  • Reduced data loss and synchronization issues in time-sensitive applications


Original Abstract Submitted

A method, a device, and a system, the method including determining, by a management device, a first transmission path that is in a network system and that is used to transmit a clock packet of a target clock source, sending, by the management device, configuration information for the first transmission path to a plurality of network devices on the first transmission path, receiving, by the management device, information that is sent by an endpoint network device on the first transmission path and that is used to determine a time difference, and sending, by the management device, a corresponding clock compensation value to at least one network device on the first transmission path based on the information that is used to determine the time difference.
