Abstract
A system and method for regenerating a client clock signal for use in optical communications is disclosed. The system and method involves using a carrier clock signal and a client clock signal to calculate quantities of data that are received and transmitted at an edge node and then adjusting a clock source in response to the difference between the calculated quantities of received and transmitted data.
