  Abstract

The technology of precise time-synchronization between signal receive devices for separation distance operation can be a key point for the technology with TDoA-based system. We propose a new method for the higher accuracy of system’s time-synchronization in this paper, which uses OCXO and DPLL with high accuracy to achieve phase synchronization at 1 pps (pulse per second) of signal. And the method receive time value from a GPS satellite. Essentially, the performance of GPS with high accuracy refers to long-term frequency stability for its reliability. As per the characteristic, as the GPS timing signals are synchronized continuously, the accuracy of time-synchronization gets improved proportionally. Therefore, if the time synchronization is accomplished, the accuracy of the synchronization can be up to 0.001 ppb (part per billion). Through the improved accuracy of the time-synchronization, the measurement error of TDOA-based location detection technology is evaluated. Consequently, we verify that TDoA-based location measurement error can be greatly improved via using the improved method for time-synchronization error.
