ABSTRACT:
Rather than synchronizing clocks between two stations in an optical communication system by correlating a received synchronization signal with an own-station synchronization signal and controlling the own-station clock accordingly, the correlation takes place in one station (EX), but the correlation product is evaluated in the other station (E1-E3), and the clock signal of the latter is controlled accordingly. This may be done by sending a first synchronization bit sequence from a terminal (E1-E3) and looping it back in an exchange (EX) at the bit rate of a second synchronization bit sequence, wherein the clock generator of the terminal (E1-E3) is controlled according to the received correlation bit sequence. This has the advantage at the exchange that synchronization requires only optical switches and no optical-to-electrical transducers. It permits all optical exchanges and eliminates one optical-to-electrical transducer per connected subscriber. The only disadvantage is that for a transmitter without receiver, an additional reverse channel is necessary.
