<p>This method for synchronizing nodes of a mesh wireless network is characterized in that it comprises the steps of :
- randomly choosing (32) the state of said node between a transmission and a reception state;
- if the chosen state for said node is a transmission state (36), transmitting (38) the synchronization signal to the neighboring nodes;
- if the chosen state for said node is a reception state (40) :
- receiving (42) the synchronization signals transmitted from the neighboring nodes in a transmission state;
- extracting (42) the synchronization times of the neighboring nodes from the received synchronization signals;
- combining (44) the synchronization time of said node with the extracted synchronization times of the neighboring nodes; and
- updating (48) the synchronization time of said node to be equal to the combining result.</p> |
