Detailed Description
The technical solution in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention.
Fig. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of a time synchronization system in the prior art, and as shown in fig. 1, a time synchronization system 10 includes: a local end 11 and a remote end 12, wherein the local end 11 includes: a time source 111, a laser 112, a circulator 113, a beam expander 114, a photodetector 115 and a comparator 116; the distal end 12 includes: a time source 121, a laser 122, a circulator 123, a beam expander 124, a photodetector 125, and a comparator 126.

In the synchronization process, time delay fluctuation and time instability of a time synchronization system between two stations are measured, a first time pulse signal of 10ms is transmitted within 5000s, the root mean square value of the measured time delay fluctuation is about 1ns, the time instability of a far end within 1s is 1 x 10^ (-10), and the time instability of the far end within kiloseconds is 1 x 10^ (-12).
