Abstract :
As mobile backhaul networks migrate from legacy time-division-multiplex-based to packet-switched network infrastructures, the transport technology needs to address synchronization requirements once inherently provided by the network. This article explores key technology topics highlighting challenges to be considered in rolling out mobile backhaul synchronization solutions.
