A technique for performing time synchronization between a master device and a slave device is disclosed. A method implementation of the technique is performed by the master device and comprises transmitting, using optical wireless signals, a timestamp representative of a clock time of the master device to the slave device, wherein the timestamp is encoded using a color-based optical coding scheme and is to be used by the slave device to set a clock time of the slave device in accordance with the timestamp to thereby synchronize the clock time of the slave device with the clock time of the master device.

Technique for performing time synchronization

There is provided a method for handling packets in a network. The method is performed by a first entity. The method is performed in response to receipt of a first packet, from a first network slice in the network, to be scheduled for a first service. A first priority value is assigned to the first packet by a provider of the first service. The method comprises setting () a second priority value for the first packet based on a comparison of the first priority value with at least one reference priority value. The second priority value is indicative of a priority with which the first packet is to be scheduled relative to at least one other packet.
