    Networks are transiti oning from circuit switched to packet switched to become more e cient, exible and cost e ecti ve. With ti me criti cal services such as audio and real ti me video being transported through the inherently asynchronous Packet Networks, Timing over Packet technologies such as IEEE1588 is used to support synchronizati on and is becoming prominent. The requirements of Synchronizati on designs posing challenges to traditi onal methods.

    Rakon has characterised various types of oscillators under changing environmental conditi ons for the loop ti me periods relevant to IEEE 1588v2. Rakon presents a wide range of oscillators that economically t a wide range of applicati on requirements in the IEEE 1588 space.

    Introduction and Rakon Solutions

    The local synchronised oscillator is moving from a physical layer based, phase or frequency locked loop, to a ti me locked system via secondary layer protocols. The non stochasti c nature of the Packet Delay Variati ons (PDV) force the loop to have smaller bandwidths and thus longer ti me constants.

    Oscillators present themselves as high pass lters in the control loop, thus smaller loop bandwidths can mean that the medium term stability performance of an oscillator is important to the overall system performance. E ecti vely the oscillators stability performance is now dominated by environmental changes during the extended ti me periods.

    The oscillator stability over the medium term (minutes to hours) is either poorly characterised or not been accounted for at all, since the stability under these conditi ons is covered indirectly by other oscillator/system speci cati ons.

    Medium Term Stability Challenges for Oscillators Used in IEEE 1588v2

    Historically there have been only two oscillator / lock bandwidth combinati ons, namely Stratum 3 and Stratum 3E.

    For Stratum 3 oscillators, the e ect of variable temperature on TDEV and MTIE was likely to be minimal since the oscillator has a lock bandwidth in the 0.1 to 10 Hz range (ti me constants of 1.6s to 0.02s) and any slow changes in frequency due to, for example, temperature uctuati ons were ltered out.

    Conversely, with the Stratum 3E oscillator, because of the very high stability required for the variable temperature stability requirement (5 ppb), small changes in temperature would not a ect the TDEV and MTIE even with a 1 millihertz (mHz) lock bandwidth (ti me constants of 160s.

    The non - stati onary nature of the PDVs impose new requirements for the local oscillator. Loops operate with lock bandwidths in the 10 mHz to 0.1 mHz (ti me constant 1600s) region to lter the wander introduced by PDV. System speci cati ons of frequency stability, holdover requirements for frequency and if required phase will determine the requirements for Oscillators.

    At Rakon we have the experti se to help determine the best oscillator soluti on for our customers systems requirements. Oscillator soluti ons require knowledge of the di erenti al in frequency versus the di erenti al in temperature. Full characterisati on is determined by de ning the temperature ramp and measurement rate and a detailed analysis over the characterisati on ti me period.

    Right oscillator for right application

    ROX2522S4 - 40/85oC (10oC/hour) 1 mHz loop lterRFPO45 - 40/85oC (10oC/hour) 3 mHz loop lter

    Rakons RFPO45 G.8263, RMO1490B and ROX2522S4 OCXO are designed for bandwidths of 3 ~ 1 mHz and below and for very ti ght holdover performance, these products are designed for the most stringent system requirements.

    For systems that does not require holdover, oscillators that are compliant to G.8263 speci cati ons may sti ll provide the wander ltering necessary to meet the TDEV / MTIE requirements. The challenge for the system designer is to assess which oscillator will work at which lock bandwidth and sti ll meet the implied TDEV/MTIE requirements in locked conditi ons and assess what oscillators may be required to provide adequate holdover for speci ed durati on of ti me required by the applicati on. This is where Rakon can help.

    Rakons ROX5242T2 and ROX3627T3 have the best stability performance. They are designed for bandwidths of 0.3 ~ 0.1 mHz and below and for very ti ght holdover performance, these products are designed for systems that require frequency and ti me holdover will require Stratum 3E or higher temperature stability performance.

    Rakon proposed a Thermal Pro le to represent a more realisti c usage environment and most chipset vendors and OEMs suppported thie contributi on.

    E.g.: The limit is 20C movement at (0.5C/min or t 1C/min as required) be taken to cover both the external environmental e ects.
