Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) PTP (Precision Time Protocol) specified in IEEE 1588-2002 and IEEE
1588-2008 is a network protocol for achieving more precise time
synchronization among networked devices than the conventional NTP (Network
Time Protocol).
Although hardware-assisted timestamp during PTP message exchanges has been
commonly used for realizing a high-precision time synchronization,
software-only implementation that does not require specific hardware at
networked devices is also studied in the literature.
Different from hardware-assisted time synchronization, software-only
implementation must cope with jitter and noise observed in timestamps in PTP
messages so that undesirable effects such as clock fluctuation and/or desynchronization can be mitigated.
A softrware-only implementation of the PTP protocol called PTPd includes
a clock adjustment mechanism (clock servo), which utilizes two
types of low-pass filters and a PI (Proportional Integral)
controller in classical control theory.
Although a number of studies have devoted for performance evalution of the
PTP protocol, to the best of our knowledge, the characteristics of
clock adjustment mechanism for PTP have not been well understood.
In this paper, we therefore build a discrete-model of a networked system
utilizing the PTP protocol and the clock adjustment mechanism using the PI
controller at the slave
device. We also analyze the stability of the entire system.
Through numerical examples, we investigate the effect of control parameters
of the clock adjustment mechanism on both steady-state and transient-state
characteristics.
