Wireless communication enhancements for transparent and boundary clocks

A method at a node of a wireless communication network, comprising:

• receiving, from additional nodes of the wireless communication network, indicators of one or more timing domains supported by the additional nodes;
• receiving a precision time protocol (PTP) message associated with a timing domain;
• and
• sending the PTP message to a subset of the additional nodes based at least in a part on the indicators of one or more timing domains supported by the additional nodes.

An apparatus at a first node of a wireless communication network, comprising:

• a processor,
• memory coupled to processor;
• and
• instructions stored in the memory and executable by the processor to cause the apparatus to:
• receive a precision time protocol (PTP) message;
• identify one or more timing domains to be supported by the first node based at least in part on the PTP message;
• and
• send, to a second node of the wireless communication network, an indicator of the one or more timing domains to be supported by the first node.
