Development of PLIC-based time synchronization device

The article discusses a method of receiving and processing signals using a programmable logic integrated circuit in order to reduce the cost of time synchronization equipment. These actions are considered by the example of the «Beta» time signal. A method for receiving and processing a signal is described, based on the given structural diagram of the project. The installation was assembled and an experiment was conducted in accordance with the described parameters. The data obtained during the experiment in the form of graphs (spectral analysis of the signal, decoding of the Morse code and the information structure of the signal) are also presented. According to the results of the experiment, it is clear that the received signal from the “Beta” exact time service radio transmitter was received and processed without loss, as evidenced by the spectral analysis, as well as further decoding of the signal. The device fully complies with the set conditions and can be used in banking, metrology, as well as mobile operators, which will significantly reduce their costs. The assembled installation can be used in banking, metrology, and also by mobile operators, which will significantly reduce their time synchronization costs.
