Abstract :
A simple synchronizer is proposed to provide synchronization on asynchronous network with the modified time protocol based on packet transfer. The proposed synchronizer has enhanced performance for time accuracy and its simple structure is easily attached to legacy network elements such as Ethernet L2 switch.
