Present embodiment provides a kind of method of clock synchronization, and this method is mainly used in the clock synchronization between each equipment frame in the multi-chassis cascading system.
The multi-chassis cascading system generally takes Full Mesh (the full connection) or Multi-Star (many stars) framework to carry out interconnected.In Full Mesh framework, as shown in Figure 3, direct interconnected path is arranged all between any one equipment frame and the miscellaneous equipment frame.In the Multi-Star framework, as shown in Figure 4, branch center equipment frame and ancillary equipment frame two classes have direct interconnected path between ancillary equipment frame and the central apparatus frame, can only be interconnected indirectly by the central apparatus frame between the ancillary equipment frame.
No matter adopt many frameworks of Full Mesh structure, still adopt many frameworks of Multi-Star structure, present embodiment adopts the star logical construction on clock synchronization is handled, with one of them or two equipment frames as the clock synchronization Centroid (if two equipment frames are simultaneously as the clock synchronization Centroid, generally all be for reliability, and mutual redundancy backup), the miscellaneous equipment frame is as the clock synchronization peripheral node.Wherein, in many frameworks of Multi-Star structure, present embodiment is chosen the central apparatus frame as clock synchronization central node equipment frame, and all ancillary equipment frames are as clock synchronization peripheral node equipment frame.In the present embodiment, clock synchronization central node equipment frame and clock synchronization peripheral node equipment frame all refer to be positioned in logic center and peripheral equipment frame.
System is an example with Full Mesh multi-chassis cascading, and referring to Fig. 5, the idiographic flow of clock synchronization is as follows:
301: clock synchronization peripheral node equipment frame obtains this equipment frame clock internal reference synchronization information;
Concrete, receive clock synchronization information from this equipment frame business interface, therefrom select one as this equipment frame clock internal reference synchronization information.

If in the multi-chassis cascading system a plurality of clock synchronization peripheral node equipment frames are arranged, then each all passes through the mode of step 301-304, and this equipment frame clock internal reference synchronization information is sent to clock synchronization central node equipment frame.
305: clock synchronization central node equipment frame receives the first interconnected information that clock synchronization peripheral node equipment frame sends by interconnecting interface between the frame of self;
306:, obtain serial clock information according to the first interconnected information;
307:, obtain clock synchronization peripheral node equipment frame clock internal reference synchronization information with this serial clock information frequency division;

Concrete, according to predefined strategy, from this equipment frame and peripheral node equipment frame clock internal reference synchronization information, select one, as the unified clock reference synchronization information of this group system.
Through step 305-309, clock synchronization central node equipment frame has just been determined the unified clock reference synchronization information of this group system.After this, clock synchronization central node equipment frame needs this unified clock reference synchronization distribution of information in whole group system, not only be distributed to equipment (if the Multi-Star multi-chassis cascading system in this equipment frame, then clock synchronization central node equipment frame does not need this step), also will be distributed to other clock synchronization peripheral node equipment frame, detailed process is as follows:

Through step 301-315, all devices frame in the Full Mesh group system and internal unit thereof all are synchronized with a timing reference input, i.e. unified clock reference synchronization information.
The idiographic flow of the clock synchronization of Multi-Star multi-chassis cascading system is identical substantially with Full Mesh group system.Difference is, Multi-Star multi-chassis cascading system, because clock synchronization central node equipment frame is generally chosen the central apparatus frame, and the central apparatus frame itself does not have business interface.Therefore, in the Multi-Star multi-chassis cascading system, clock synchronization central node equipment frame need not execution in step 308, and is corresponding, the content of step 309 becomes: according to clock synchronization peripheral node equipment frame clock internal reference synchronization information, determine unified clock reference synchronization information.In addition, when distribution unified clock reference synchronization information, only be distributed to other clock synchronization peripheral node equipment frame.Other step is identical with the clock synchronization process of Full Mesh multi-chassis cascading system, repeats no more here.
Further, step 302,303 and step 310,311 can adopt the SERDES technology to realize.Referring to SERDES structural representation shown in Figure 6.
At sending direction, frequency is parallel data and parallel clock (the general designation business datum of n for the fparallel bit wide, comprise first business datum and second business datum in the present embodiment), (present embodiment is the n:m balance code through the balance code module, commonly used 8b:10b balance code, 64b:66b balance code etc. are arranged), being converted to bit wide is m, and frequency still is the parallel equilibrium criterion of fparallel; Through parallel serial conversion module, changing frequency into is the high speed serialization business datum of fserial (fserial=fparallel*m); Transmitter side also has clock multiplier and phase-locked module, it is added to clock synchronization reference information and local reference clock fRxref on the serial clock information, serial clock information and serial business datum are formed interconnected information (comprising the first interconnected information and the second interconnected information in the present embodiment), and interconnected information is sent.
At receive direction, frequency is the interconnected information of fserial, at first passes through clock and data recovery (CDR, Clock Data Recovery) module, the reference clock fRxref that this module provides based on this locality recovers serial clock information and serial business datum from the interconnected information that receives.To change bit wide into be m to the serial business datum that recovers through string and modular converter, frequency is the parallel equilibrium criterion of fparallel (fparallel=fserial/m), pass through balance decoder module (being the decoding of m:n balance among the figure) then, being converted to bit wide is n, and frequency still is the business datum of fparallel; The high speed serialization clock information that receiver side recovers is out handled output clock synchronization reference information through frequency division.
When more than having introduced in the group system clock synchronization, the information interaction flow process between the equipment frame.When realizing clock synchronization, the function logic structure of equipment frame inside comprises interconnect module (being provided with M) between several business interface modules (being provided with N), two central processing module (one of them is used for backup) and frame referring to shown in Figure 7.This logical construction is applicable to all devices frame in many frameworks of Full Mesh structure, and the clock synchronization peripheral node equipment frame in the Multi-Star multi-chassis cascading.

On the business interface module, incoming line clock sync signal from business interface extracts (as figure steps A 1) afterwards through interface chip, select (as figure step B1) and be positioned at circuit reference clock on the central processing module to select (as figure step C1) two-stage to select after the processing through the circuit reference clock that is positioned at the business interface inside modules, be sent to be positioned at central processing module the clock processing center as alternative clock synchronization reference source.Clock processing center (as figure step D1) only needs the line clock synchronizing signal according to the inner input of this equipment frame, do the further selection in this equipment frame clock internal reference synchronization source, and the clock synchronization reference signal after will selecting is by being positioned at the interconnected reference clock distribution (as figure step e 1) on the central processing module and being positioned at the interconnected reference clock distribution (as figure step F 1) on the interconnect module between frame, be distributed to step by step between frame between the frame on the interconnect module on the interconnecting interface chip, be used for that the interconnecting interface chip sends this equipment frame clock internal synchronous reference signal (as figure step G1) by interconnecting interface between frame between frame, thereby the clock synchronization reference signal that this equipment frame is selected sends to the neighbouring device frame by interconnecting interface between this frame.Because very clear and definite as the destination that the clock synchronization reference signal of the equipment frame of clock synchronization peripheral node sends, be equipment frame, so step e 1, F1, G1 not broadcasting as the clock synchronization Centroid, but the distribution with purpose.When the synchronous peripheral node equipment frame of clock receives the unified clock synchronous reference signal that clock synchronization central node equipment frame sends, its data flow is just in time opposite with aforesaid transmission flow, here only be briefly described as follows: the interconnecting interface chip receives unified clock synchronous reference signal (as figure steps A 2) by interconnecting interface between frame between frame, the interconnected reference clock that receives in (as figure step B2) and the central processing module by the interconnected reference clock in the interconnect module between frame receives (as figure step C2), the unified clock synchronous reference signal is transferred to clock processing center (as figure step D2) step by step, receive the circuit reference clock reception (as figure step F 2) of (as figure step e 2) and business interface module then through the circuit reference clock of central processing module, be distributed to the interface chip (as figure steps A 2) of business module step by step, by business interface the unified clock synchronous reference signal be distributed to equipment in this equipment frame at last.Wherein, interconnecting interface chip and interface chip between frame specifically can adopt aforementioned SERDES technology to realize.
When this equipment frame during as the clock synchronization Centroid, the processing procedure of clock synchronization is identical substantially with the clock synchronization peripheral node.Difference is, clock processing center (corresponding step D1) need be determined the unified clock synchronous reference signal in this cluster according to the clock synchronization reference signal of the clock synchronization ancillary equipment frame of this equipment frame clock internal synchronous reference signal and reception.In addition, when distribution unified clock synchronous reference signal, not only to be distributed to the interface chip of the business interface module of this equipment frame, also will be distributed to other clock synchronization peripheral node equipment frame.
When specific implementation, can pass through software or logic configuration, select equipment frame to be operated in clock synchronization Centroid or clock synchronization peripheral node.
