CLOCK-SYNCHRONIZATION WIRELESS NETWORK Russian patent published in 2004 - IPC

FIELD: radio networks.

SUBSTANCE: proposed network has plurality of nodes exchanging data through wireless medium. Network node has clock pulse source for supplying all electrical and radio devices with clock pulses. Main node of network transfers synchronization pattern that depends on its clock pulse source; all remaining nodes referred to as secondary nodes are assigned to different hierarchically ordered distance classes depending on their distance from main node of network. All secondary nodes transfer synchronization pattern that depends on clock pulses of respective clock pulse source and characterizes distance class. Secondary node of network synchronizes its respective clock pulse source by means of received synchronization pattern of hierarchically higher distance class.

EFFECT: provision for synchronizing clock pulses of network separate nodes.
