Timing synchronization

Synchronization is critical to maintain good voice quality, reduce interference and manage call handovers between
base stations. There are several approaches to achieve this timing synchronization, including synchronous Ethernet,
adaptive clock recovery and IEEE (News - Alert) 1588 v2. The Broadband Forum is currently assessing various
requirements to support clock distribution to base stations, including frequency, phase, and time synchronization and
provides recommendations in terms of QoS
Control Plane handles signalling between nodes
user plane handles user traffic like voice and data.
