PTP may be implemented in hardware, software or a combination of both. PTP is implemented in end systems and in PTP-aware networking hardware. PTP implementations may have the ability to serve as a source of time for the network, a grandmaster, or operate as a slave and receive time and synchronize to the grandmaster. Some implementations are ...
Via BMCA, PTP selects a source of time for an IEEE 1588 domain and for each network segment in the domain. Clocks determine the offset between themselves and their leader. [12] Let the variable represent physical time. For a given follower device, the offset () at time is defined by:
PTPd is a complete, BSD licensed, open source code implementation of the IEEE 1588-2008 PTP specification. Currently only Unix-like computers can run the software, but this essentially means that FreeBSD, Linux, macOS, Minix 3 and QNX computers can participate in PTP networks.
Precision Time Protocol - The IEEE1588 or the Precision Time Protocol is a time protocol designed to provide synchronization accuracy of 1 microsecond or even less, particularly for use in Industrial networks and Research labs where accurate synchronization is necessary. An accuracy of sub nanoseconds is ideally possible in PTP networks but, in ...
The time server maintains its clock by using a radio clock or other accurate time source, then all other computers in the system stay synchronized with it. A time client will maintain its clock by making a procedure call to the time server. Variations of this algorithm make more precise time calculations by factoring in network radio ...
The PTP Industrial Profile (PIP) is a standard of the IEC 62439-3 [1] that specifies in its Annex C two Precision Time Protocol IEEE 1588 / IEC 61588 profiles, L3E2E and L2P2P, to synchronize network clocks with an accuracy of 1 μs and provide fault-tolerance against clock failures.

IEC/IEEE 61850-9-3 is a profile (subset) of IEEE Std 1588 Precision Time Protocol (PTP) when clocks are singly attached. IEC/IEEE 61850-9-3 provides seamless fault tolerance by attaching clocks to duplicated networks paths and by support of simultaneously active redundant master clocks. For this case, the extensions to PTP defined in IEC 62439 ...
