The invention relates to a synchronous clocked communication system, for example a distributed automation system, the stations of which can be arbitrary automation components and which are coupled to one another via a data network. Using the disclosed method for integrating decentralized
A receiving unit is more precisely synchronized to a transmitting unit by transmitting synchronization signals from the transmitting unit, adjusting a clock-pulse generator of a phase-locked loop, a phase shifter integrating instantaneous phase errors to an integration value, and adj
