Abstract
In order to detect performance parameter variations at different locations, local parameter detectors are located at the various local locations. One of the local locations is selected as the reference location while the other local locations are selected as destination locations. The reference location is utilized to determine a reference parameter value, while each destination location compares its local parameter value to the reference parameter value. The parameter values are current encoded and the reference parameter value is sent to the other locations for the comparisons. The comparison at the destination locations each generates a corrective signal to compensate for the difference in the parameter value between the locations. Parameter compensation is provided to reduce performance skew among the distributed locations.
