Using SpaceWire Time Codes for Spacecraft Time SynchronizationThis paper describes how SpaceWire Time Codes can be used for synchronizing time within various subsystems of a spacecraft as well as, maintaining a common time reference needed for coordinating operations within a spacecraft. The algorithms to account for inaccuracies in the time distribution method were based on the NASA-4009 Space Telecommunication Radio System (STRS) standard [1], which defined an interface for synchronizing clocks running at different tick rates and tick resolutions.
