AI总结：
本文提出DOMINO，一种扩展RBIS的Wi-Fi同步方案，通过扩大覆盖范围实现跨多个网络的精确时间传播。
摘要：
精确的时钟同步协议越来越多地被用来确保网络中的所有节点共享同一个时间基。它们启用了几种旨在提高应用和通信层面确定性的机制，这使它们在工业环境中变得高度相关。参考广播基础设施同步（RBIS）是专门为Wi-Fi设计的解决方案，它利用现有的信标，并可以在商用设备上运行。在本文中，提出了一种RBIS的进化版本，我们称之为DOMINO，其覆盖范围远大于单个Wi-Fi基础设施网络，可能包括整个工厂。特别是，可以同时看到多个接入点的无线站充当边界时钟，并在重叠网络之间传播参考时间。
英文摘要：
Precise clock synchronization protocols are increasingly used to ensure that all the nodes in a network share the very same time base. They enable several mechanisms aimed at improving determinism at both the application and communication levels, which makes them highly relevant to industrial environments. Reference Broadcast Infrastructure Synchronization (RBIS) is a solution specifically conceived for Wi-Fi that exploits existing beacons and can run on commercial devices. In this paper, an evolution of RBIS is presented, we call DOMINO, whose coverage area is much larger than the single Wi-Fi infrastructure network, potentially including the whole plant. In particular, wireless stations that can see more than one access point at the same time behave as boundary clocks and propagate the reference time across overlapping networks.
