文摘Clock synchronization is one of the most fundamental and crucial network communication strategies.With the expansion of the Industrial Internet in numerous industrial applications,a new requirement for the precision,security,complexity,and other features of the clock synchronization mechanism has emerged in various industrial situations.This paper presents a study of standardized clock synchronization protocols and techniques for various types of networks,and a discussion of how these protocols and techniques might be classified.Following that is a description of how certain clock synchronization protocols and technologies,such as PROFINET,Time-Sensitive Networking(TSN),and other well-known industrial networking protocols,can be applied in a number of industrial situations.This study also investigates the possible future development of clock synchronization techniques and technologies.
