The GNSS resiliency of specific equipment or technology does not fully address the needs of critical infrastructure operators who are managing the use of PNT services over large geographical areas.

Delivering timing accuracy in 5G networks Wednesday May. 05, 2021 By Comcores How IEEE 1588 PTP has evolved to meet the stringent time synchronization requirements of 5G In mobile networks, time synchronization has always been important. Each new generation of mobile networks has driven the need for increased precision and accuracy in synchronization standards and solutions. Nevertheless, 5G is different. 5G time synchronization requirements are the most demanding seen to date and have elevated...

, providing a new level of resiliency with the introduction of an innovative redundancy architecture in addition to support for a multiband Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) receiver and enhanced security to ensure always-on precise timing and synchronization. Redundancy is key for infrastructure providers to ensure uninterrupted services. Infrastructure deployments previously relied on hardware redundancy to avoid service disruption despite costly modular architectures. Microchips Time...
