Techniques for synchronizing devices in a wireless network are described. In an aspect, a device determines a receive time for a base station, obtains a time offset for the base station from a network entity, and sets its transmit time based on the receive time and the time offset for the base station. The time offset compensates for the degree by which the base station is asynchronous with respect to a reference time, e.g., UTC time. In another aspect, a device determines and sends time difference information (e.g., a time offset or a TDOA measurement) for at least one base station to support synchronization of other devices. In yet another aspect, a network entity supports synchronization of devices, receives time difference information for at least one base station, and determines at least one time offset for the at least one base station based on the time difference information. |
