Abstract
Telecommunications systems can be synchronized via the transmission link. In this process, the telecommunication systems receive the clock signal and an additional information item, which describes the quality of the clock signal, from the received data stream. In telecommunication systems which are connected to a number of differently standardized transmission networks, different algorithms for evaluating the differently formatted clock signal quality data are necessary in the main processor. The present telecommunication system simplifies the communication of clock signal qualities. The different interface cards have converters which convert the clock signal quality information between a transmission-network-specific format and an independent format. The main processor only contains a subunit for processing all clock signal qualities. The present method for synchronizing a telecommunication system includes a converting the transmission-network-specific data into messages of an independent format. The present method for transmitting data includes converting the independently formatted messages into transmission-network-specific data.
