Abstract
A system () comprising: a first unit () and one or more second units (). The first unit () comprises: a timing reference () configured to provide a master-timing-reference-signal; a master time block configured to provide a master-time-signal () for the first unit () based on the master-timing-reference-signal; and a first interface () configured to: receive timestamped-processed-second-RF-signals from the one or more second units (); and provide a first-unit-timing-signal () to the one or more second units () based on the master-time-signal. The one or more second units () each comprise: a slave time block () configured to: determine a slave-time-signal () for the second unit () based on the master-timing-reference-signal; determine one or more second-timing-values based on the slave-time-signal; determine an adjustment-time based on the first-unit-timing-signal received from the first unit () and the second-timing-values; and adjust the slave-time-signal based on the adjustment-time.
