Abstract
Systems and techniques for delivering timing over packet (ToP) data over a wireless hop. Timing information is synchronized between a master and a slave node of a wireless hop. When a ToP packet arrives at the master node, an arrival time of the packet at an ingress point of the master node is noted and stored as a timestamp. The packet is transmitted over a wireless link to the slave node. The packet makes its way to an egress point of the slave node, and the residence time of the packet in the wireless link is calculated and stored. The residence time of the packet is the time between the packet's arrival at the ingress point of the master and the egress point of the slave. The packet is then transmitted out of the egress point of the slave.
