Synchronization Service

The Synchronization Service provides the capability to send time and synchronization events to remote applications across the network. The Synchronization Service is based on the CCSDS SOIS Synchronization Service. The Synchronization Service works in conjunction with protocols to communicate time and time-based event messages to all nodes in the payload. The Synchronization Service may use dedicated infrastructure or data link specific features, such as multicast or broadcast, depending on the needs and capabilities of the system.
