Abstract
A method for measuring the asymmetric delay of a communication path includes: sending, by a first node, a first delay measurement message to a second node whose local clock is synchronized with the first node; receiving, by the first node, a second delay measurement message sent by the second node; calculating, according to time when the first delay measurement message is sent by the first node and time when the second node receives the first measurement message, a communication path delay in a direction towards the second node; calculating, according to time when the second node sends the second delay measurement message and time when the second measurement message is received by the first node, a communication path delay in a direction leaving the second node; and obtaining a measured value of the asymmetric delay of the communication path according to the communication path delays in the two directions.
