Synchronization Function

Sync Introduction

Apex Xavier provides 3 ways to synchronize sensor input data: PPS, Sync in and Sync out. Synchronization error is within 1μs. (Error estimation method is attached to the end of this section)

Sync Function

PPS Sync Method

MiiVii device generates PPS(Pulse width: 50ms)¹. The NMEA GPRMC message is sent through PPS port. NMEA message example:

$GPRMC,060249.000,A,3949.63046,N,11616.48565,E,0.296,,291118,,,A*4d

[1]  For the hardware connection method of the PPS, please refer to the "PPS Ports and Pin Assignments" section in the "I/O Cable"

'060249.000' represents 'Time of fix 06:02:49 UTC'. Receiving PPS signal and GPRMC message, sensors which support PPS synchronization, could synchronize their internal clock with system time. Together with the timestamp, sensor data is sent to MiiVii device, so that Apex Xavier receives the data acquisition time.

Synchronization verification (RS-LiDar-16 sensor):

When the sensor connects with Apex Xavier using only data wire, device ROS Node sends hardware timestamp to the system, which is determined by sensor’s internal clock. As shown below, there is a big difference between hardware timestamp and system time.

After connecting the sensor with MiiVii device's PPS_SYNC and PPS_TX pin, the sensor’s internal clock is synchronized with system time. Comparing the hardware timestamp and system time, when the difference is less than 100ms, it means PPS synchronization is functional.

Sync out Method

MiiVii device could generate one 1-30Hz signal (Pulse width: 5ms) through its sync-out pin². This signal is received by sensors as trigger signal for data acquisition. Meanwhile, MiiVii device records the moment of this signal’s rising edge. After data acquisition, MiiVii device associates received data with the trigger signal’s rising edge moment as data timestamp. Thus, MiiVii device system obtains data acquisition time.
[2]  For the hardware connection method of the Sync out, please refer to the "SYNC Ports and Pin Assignments" section in the "I/O Cable"

Also, MiiVii device provides sync-out feature for GMSL interface. See GMSL Camera Section for details.

Synchronization Verification

Set the sensor to external sync configuration. By recording ROS bags, check whether the sensor trigger signal equals to your setting or not. If the difference is within 1Hz, it means sync-out method is functional.

Sync in Method

Sensors with sync-in mode could generate a signal at the beginning of data acquisition³. MiiVii device receives this signal and records its rising edge moment. After data acquisition, MiiVii device associates received data with the signal’s rising edge moment as data timestamp. Thus, MiiVii device system obtains data acquisition time.
[3]  For the hardware connection method of the Sync in, please refer to the "SYNC Ports and Pin Assignments" section in the "I/O Cable"

Synchronization Verification:

Print the signal’s timestamp received by SYNC_IN pin. Compare this timestamp with system time of frame received (ros::time::now). If the difference is less than 100 ms, it means sync-in method is functional.

Synchronization error estimation

Measure PPS signal duration with oscilloscope

Measure sync-out signal duration with oscilloscope

Evaluate synchronization feature by measuring timestamp jitter

Sample code to calculate timestamp jitter

MiiVii device provides sample code for users to evaluate the synchronization feature.

#navigate to the following directory
cd /opt/miivii/feature/sync_test/bin
#evaluate sync-out method performance
./sync_out_test
#evaluate sync-in method performance
./sync_in_test
#evaluate pps synchronization method performance
./pps_test

Sync out jitter measurement

Sample code(sync_out_test) could run real-time analytics on the received timestamp. Time interval, frequency, max deviation and standard deviation are printed out.

Sync in jitter measurement

Connect an external signal with fixed frequency to MiiVii device SYNC_IN pin. Run sample code (sync_in_test) for real-time analytics on the received timestamp.

MiiVii device's SYNC_OUT pin could be used as an 25Hz external signal to connect with SYNC_IN pin

PPS jitter measurement

Connect MiiVii device's PPS pin and SYNC_IN pin. Run sample code (pps_test) for real-time analytics on the received timestamp.
