Abstract :
This paper proposes a one point to multi-point distributed time transfer scheme using optical fiber links. The corresponding control protocol and adapters for the proposed scheme are designed and implemented. A 1 to 8 experimental system over 20km single-mode fiber with stabilities less than 50ps is demonstrated.
