Abstract

See full text

A method for adjusting clock skew in a network is disclosed. A model is fit to a first clock input signal received at a first receiver of the network and to a second clock input signal received at a second receiver of the network to obtain a fitted model. A first response signal is simulated using the fitted model and the first clock input signal and a second response signal is simulated using the fitted model and the second clock input signal. A time difference is determined between the simulated first response signal and the simulated second response signal. A parameter of at least one of the network clock network, the first receiver and the second receiver is altered to adjust the determined time difference.
