Abstract

A reference time associated with a satellite signal received at a clock synchronization source is determined, wherein the reference time is from a master reference clock. A recorded time associated with a corresponding satellite signal received at a remote clock synchronization destination is received from the remote clock synchronization destination via a network, wherein the received recorded time is from a remote clock to be synchronized with the master reference clock. A clock adjustment value is calculated based on a comparison of the determined reference time and the received recorded time. The clock adjustment value is provided to the remote clock synchronization destination, wherein the clock adjustment value is able to be utilized by the remote clock synchronization destination to adjust the remote clock to increase synchronization with the master reference clock.
