Abstract

Embodiments of this application disclose a synchronization method and a device. A device marks, based on a preset period, a periodic code block in a data bitstream to be sent from a MAC layer to a PHY layer. The device sends the data bitstream to a peer device through the PHY layer, records a sending time of each periodic code block as a first timestamp during sending, and returns the first timestamp to the MAC layer. By marking a timestamp for the periodic code block received from the MAC layer, the device sets a PHY-layer-based time reference scale (namely, the first timestamp) at the PHY layer.
