摘要：There is provided a time distribution network (TDN) comprising a plurality of clock nodes and a controller being in data communication with the clock nodes via a
control path and a method of operating thereof. The method of operating a clock node comprises: sending to the controller a first timestamp-related data; receiving clock-recovery control data generated by the controller using the first timestamp-related data, processing the received clock-recovery control data to extract data usable for phase and frequency recovery; and using the extracted data to steer frequency and phase characterizing the clock node. The method of operating the controller comprises: continuously receiving from the clock nodes timestamp-related data being informative of master and slave timestamps associated with the respective clock nodes; using the received first timestamp-related data to generate clock-recovery control data with respect to the clock nodes, the generated clock-recovery control data comprising data usable for phase and frequency recovery; and continuously sending the generated clock-recovery control data, via the control path, to the respective clock nodes.
