Abstract

See full text

Methods are provided for implementing a timing synchronization or a backup timing synchronization in a telecommunication network. Timing pulses are received from a celestial body such as a star, pulsar, or quasar. The timing pulses are periodic and repetitive and act as a primary reference source in place of GPS timing or an atomic clock. The telecommunication network is synchronized from the timing pulses.
