A new scheme of remote frequency control based on the IEEE 1588 standards, a precision time synchronization protocol (PTP) is proposed in this paper. A remote oven-controlled crystal oscillator (OCXO) is steered by integrating the PTP system, fuzzy controller and D/A converter, such that its frequency can follow a primary cesium atomic clock used as the master clock of the PTP system. Experimental results show that for averaging times of one day, the frequency stability of the OCXO can be improved from a few parts in 109 to 1012.
