Abstract:
According to a synchronization method and apparatus provided in this application, a source station sends location information of the source station; and after obtaining a signal propagation delay that is calculated according to the location information of the source station and location information of a to-be-synchronized station, the to-be-synchronized station performs synchronization with the source station according to a synchronization reference time obtained by subtracting the propagation delay from a receiving time of a first network reference signal received from the source station. It can be learned that, in a process in which the to-be-synchronized station performs synchronization with the source station, the signal propagation delay between the to-be-synchronized station and the source station is used to compensate for the receiving time of the first network reference signal. Therefore, the consumed propagation delay can be subtracted from the synchronization reference time, so that synchronization accuracy is improved.

Claim (Index 18):
The station according to  claim 17 , wherein the memory further comprises instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the station to:\n send an adjustment value of the station before the first station adjusts local time according to the adjustment value of the first station for causing another to-be-synchronized station to calculate an adjustment value of the another to-be-synchronized station, wherein the adjustment value of the other to-be-synchronized station is a sum of the adjustment value of the station and an adjustment value of the another to-be-synchronized station relative to the source station, the adjustment value of the other to-be-synchronized station for synchronization between the other to-be-synchronized station and the source station.
