A method for determining a clock offset between local clocks of at least one pair of radio units, includes performing two-way transmissions between at least one pair of radio units using signals including selected frequencies, determining phase information regarding the signals received at the radio units, determining phase differences based on the phase information, determining at least one clock offset variable, and determining an estimated maximum error in the determined clock offset variable based on maximum errors of the phase differences to determine if the maximum error of the determined clock offset variable allows the clock offset value to be unambiguously determined.
A method for determining a clock offset between local clocks of at least one pair of radio units comprising at least a first radio unit and a second radio unit, the method comprising steps of
An arrangement for determining clock offset between at least a first and second radio unit, the arrangement comprising at least a first radio unit, a second radio unit, and at least one processor, the arrangement being configured to:
