Abstract
This paper is concerned with the signal method of clock synchronization. A general definition of the simultaneity of the distant events is derived. In the unified context, both isotropic and anisotropic descriptions of physical processes in inertial reference systems are considered. A new relation for the proper time is deduced. New transformations of coordinates in two-dimensional space-time are obtained. In special cases the transformations describe Euclidean, pseudo-Euclidean, Galilean and other kinematics. All such cases have validity equal to relativistic mechanics for the description of physical processes
