The present application describes a system and method of managing beacon periods in a distributed wireless network. According to an embodiment, devices move their beacons to earliest available beacon slots in the beacon period and contract their beacon periods to increase data periods for higher data throughput of the wireless network. According to another embodiment, devices detect and resolve their beacon collision to maintain the integrity of their beacons for effective exchange of medium access and control messages as needed in a distributed wireless network.
