  • Patent number: 11630481
    Abstract: A system for managing a time reference includes a real-time clock, an interface, and a processor. The real-time clock store an RTC time. The interface is configured to receive a GPS time and a cellular time. The processor is configured to: indicate to start a time-speed adjustment loop; determine a true time based at least in part on the GPS time and the cellular time; determine an error between the true time and the RTC time; determine an RTC speed calibration adjustment based at least in part on the error; and adjust the real-time clock speed based at least in part on the RTC speed calibration adjustment.
    Type: Grant
