Abstract:
Disclosed are a synchronization method and apparatus, used for implementing a specific synchronization solution when a terminal node serves as a synchronization source. The synchronization method provided in the present application comprises: determining, when synchronization signals of a plurality of nodes are received, synchronization priorities of the plurality of nodes; and selecting, according to the synchronization priorities of the plurality of nodes, a synchronization signal of one of the nodes for synchronization.

Claim (Index 5):
The method according to  claim 1 , wherein a synchronization priority of each node is one of following priorities:\n a first priority, wherein a node having the first priority is a node obtaining a synchronization signal directly from a Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) or a system equivalent to the GNSS (GNSS-equivalent); a second priority, wherein a node having the second priority is a node obtaining a synchronization signal from the node having the first priority; and a third priority, wherein a node having the third priority is a node obtaining a synchronization signal from the node at the second priority; or the node having the third priority is a node obtaining a synchronization signal from the node having the third priority; or the node having the third priority is a node operating independently as a synchronization source.
