ABSTRACT:
A method for synchronizing communications in a wireless communications network wherein time synchronization is performed between a clock master and a clock slave. To achieve synchronization between the clock master and the clock slave, several time synchronization passes are initiated by the clock slave to the clock master. For every pass, each clock slave component generates and transmits a first timing cell containing a transmission time based on the clock slave's component clock, to the clock master. Upon receipt of the first timing cell, the clock master generates and transmits to the clock slave component a second timing cell containing the time the clock master received the first timing cell and the time the clock master transmitted the second timing cell. Upon receipt of the second timing cell, the clock slave component will obtain its reception time and calculate a transmission delay based on the reception time and the timing information contained in the timing cells.
