Abstract
In a digital multi-channel simulcast system, a redundant centralized timestamping device acts as a simulcast controller for multiple channels simultaneously. All packets within a regional multi-channel system which require simulcast transmission are sent to a central timestamping device which determines the appropriate launch timestamp for each packet and attaches it thereto. The timestamping device is able to support concurrent timestamping sessions for each channel of a multiple channel system and can be dynamically assigned (trunked) to service any given radio channel on a packet by packet, call by call, or less frequent basis.
