Abstract
This paper derives a general definition of distance within the context of general clock synchronization with the signal method. The unified context includes both isotropic and anisotropic descriptions of physical processes in inertial reference systems. Taking anisotropy of a metric space into account, new transformations of space and time are derived. Different cases of anisotropy are considered. Galilei transformations in anisotropic space have an invariant value of the speed of light over the closed path.
