Abstract
A method is disclosed of efficiently synchronizing time bases of multi-netting network nodes. A first node transmits a synchronizing request on a subnet associated with the highest time quality in its source table, then simultaneously monitors that subnet and up to three additional subnets associated with lower time qualities in its source table. If the first node does not receive a response, it transmits the request on the subnet associated with the next highest time quality in its source table. A second node simultaneously monitors the subnet associated with its time quality and a plurality of subnets associate with consecutively higher time qualities. Upon receiving the synchronization request, it responds on the subnet associated with its time quality. The disclosed method is fully compatible with networks that include single-netting nodes, and can be implemented by a JTRS node exchanging RTT messages on a Link 16 network.
