[ntp:questions] A question about the NTP delay time formula

2009-06-22 Thread Lei
In RFC 2030(written by Prof. D.Mills), we have roundtrip delay time formula as follows: d = (T4 - T1) - (T2 - T3) .(1) However, IMHO, it should be d = (T4-T1) - (T3 - T2)(1)' using which we can get t = ((T2 - T1) + (T3 - T4)) / 2 ...(2) successfu
