White Rabbit Precision Time Protocol on Long-Distance Fiber Links
Authors: Erik F. Dierikx; Anders E. Wallin; Thomas Fordell; Jani Myyry; Petri Koponen; Mikko Merimaa Abstract: The application of White Rabbit precision time protocol (WR-PTP) in long-distance optical fiber links has been investigated. WR-PTP is an implementation of PTP in synchronous Ethernet optical fiber networks, originally intended for synchronization of equipment within a range of 10 km. This paper discusses…

Scalability Analysis of the White-Rabbit Technology for Cascade-Chain Networks
Authors: Felipe Torres-Gonzalez, Javier Dıaz, Emilio Marın-Lopez, Rafael Rodriguez-Gomez Abstract: Due to an increase of timing requirements in many actual and future applications, improvements are needed in current synchronization protocols. New scenarios as the Internet of Things or the next generation of 5G Mobile telecommunication networks, where a large number of devices must be interconnected,…
