In some embodiments, a system comprises a clock, a root node, a radio channel network, and first and second child nodes. The clock may be configured to generate a clock signal. The root node may be configured to generate a first frame including a first payload and a first overhead and generate a second frame including a second payload and a second overhead. The first and second overheads may comprise a synchronization value based on the clock signal. The radio channel network may be in communication with the root node for transmitting the first and second frames. Each first and second child nodes may be configured to perform clock recovery including frequency synchronization using the synchronization value and a respective phase-lock loop.

Synchronization distribution in microwave backhaul networks

A system may include a transmitting device. The transmitting device may include one or more terminals for receiving a data signal and a first clock signal. A first phase lock loop may lock a phase of an initial periodic signal with a phase of the first clock signal, the first phase lock loop including a divider to generate the initial periodic signal based on the first clock signal. A decimation module may sample the initial periodic signal at a decimated rate of a backplane clock, the backplane clock being asynchronous with a clock that generated the first clock signal. A transmitting data block interface may construct data blocks and provide the data blocks to a receiving device, each of one or more of the data blocks including a portion of the data signal and at least one sample of the initial periodic signal.

Systems and methods for synchronization of clock signals

A terminal of an exemplary transmitting device is configured to receive an initial clock signal. A first phase lock loop is configured to lock a phase of an initial periodic signal with a phase of the initial clock signal. A transmitting data block interface is configured to provide the plurality of data blocks with samples of the initial periodic signal to a receiving device. An exemplary receiving device includes a receiving data block interface configured to receive the plurality of data blocks. A second phase lock loop is configured to recreate the initial periodic signal and lock a phase of the recreated periodic signal with a phase of the samples of the initial periodic signal. The clock signal generator is configured to recreate and provide the initial clock signal. The recreated clock signal is synchronized to the initial clock signal based on the phase of the recreated periodic signal.
