Abstract
A device is disclosed for transmitting packets in a packet communication network comprising at least two stations, including in particular means for generating a first timestamp from a sampled value of a master counter, means for generating a second timestamp from a sampled value of a second counter synchronized on the at least two stations and means for transmitting jointly the two timestamps in the packet communication network. A device is further disclosed for receiving packets in a packet communication network, which uses the double timestamp generated by the transmitter device.
