Abstract

Techniques are described to provide for re-timing a packetized radio flow to clean noise induced by packet delay variation of a packet network. In one example, a method includes receiving, at a first node of a fronthaul network, a Radio over Ethernet (RoE) frame transmitted by a second node in which the RoE frame comprises a Common Public Radio Interface (CPRI) bit stream associated with a first radio device, a sequence number, and a first time stamp. The method may further include generating a second time stamp by the first node upon obtaining the RoE frame; calculating an induced delay value based, at least in part, on the first time stamp and the second time stamp; calculating a re-timing value based on a re-timing interval and the induced delay value; and transmitting the CPRI bit stream to a second radio device based on the re-timing value.
