Abstract

A system and method for stabilizing a reference clock of a client transceiver to a reference terminal in the presence of relative motion between the client transceiver and the reference terminal. In some embodiments, the method includes: transmitting, by the client transceiver, a probe packet to the reference terminal, receiving, by the client transceiver, the probe packet from the reference terminal, receiving, by the client transceiver, a first synchronization packet from the reference terminal, and adjusting the rate of the reference clock based on the time elapsed between: the transmitting, by the client transceiver of the probe packet to the reference terminal, and the receiving, by the client transceiver, the probe packet from the reference terminal; and based on the time of reception, by the client transceiver, of the probe packet.
