A communication system (105) utilizes the global positioning system (GPS) to maintain a high degree of accuracy of synchronization of base-stations (115-116). When the GPS signal (106, 107, or 108) is absent, the communication system (105) employs an alternate signal (110-113), such as a WWVB, LORAN-C, and MSF signal, to provide redundant synchronization of the base-stations (115-116). To achieve the degree of synchronization accuracy provided by the GPS signal (106-108), the communication system (105) characterizes the alternate signal (110-113) by utilizing the GPS signal (106-108) when the GPS signal (106-108) is present. When the GPS signal (106-108) is absent, the characterized alternate signal is then employed such that synchronization of the base-stations (115-l16) is transparent to the base-stations (115, 116). Use of the GPS signal (106-108) to characterize the alternate signal (110-113) also allows the characterized alternate signal to provide the same degree of accuracy as that of the GPS signal (106-108).
Un système de communication (105) utilise le système GPS afin de maintenir un degré de précision élevé de synchronisation des stations de base (115-116). Lorsque le signal GPS (106, 107 ou 108) est absent, le système de communication (105) utilise un signal de remplacement (110-113) tel qu'un signal WWVB, LORAN-C et MSF de manière à assurer la synchronisation redondante des stations de base (115-116). Pour atteindre le degré de précision de synchronisation assuré par le signal GPS (106-108), le système de communication (105) détermine les caractéristiques du signal de remplacement (110-113) en utilisant le signal GPS (106-108) lorsque le signal GPS (106-108) est présent. Lorsque le signal GPS (106-108) est absent, le signal de remplacement caractérisé est ensuite utilisé de façon que la synchronisation des stations de base (115-116) soit transparente pour les stations de base (115-116). L'utilisation du signal GPS (106-108) pour caractériser le signal de remplacement (110-113) permet également à ce dernier d'assurer le même degré de précision que le signal GPS (106-108).
