Abstract

Several modern accelerator facilities require the synchronization of equipment, which is distributed over large distances, down to the femto-second scale. This document describes the resulting problems, gives a basic description of concepts for the solution, shows several solution presently in use and finishes with a linear model to compute the resulting phase-noise of a synchronization system.
