Hi Folks,
I wonder, if a SHM(1) disciplined NTPd can reach the same accuracy than one with the ATOM(PPS) Driver. [1] says, that SHM(1) is used for "PPS from GPS". SHM(0) is sourced from NMEA-Messages.

I'm currently parsing very precise timestamps via SHM(1) to NTP (Operation mode=0). Every timestamp in SHM(1) is derived from a pps-source and tweaked individually. Up to here everything works fine, including Nanosecond resolution. See ntpshmmon output:

ntpshmmon version 1
Name Seen@ Clock Real L Prec sample NTP0 1434023966.919852901 1434023966.105478000 1434023966.000000000 0 -1 sample NTP1 1434023967.094973227 1434023966.999997298 1434023967.000000000 0 -20 sample NTP0 1434023967.920931333 1434023967.099366000 1434023967.000000000 0 -1 sample NTP1 1434023968.096867651 1434023967.999997890 1434023968.000000000 0 -20

Unclear is, whether NTP accounts SHM(1)-timestamps with the same weight as ATOM(PPS)-timestamps. Any experiences with this?

BR, fran
