System and method for synchronizing communicating entities in a decentralized network |
摘要 |
A method for synchronizing communicating entities in a decentralized network. The method begins with a recipient entity receiving data comprising a first timestamp and a first distance. The first timestamp being the time the first data was broadcast; the first distance being a distance from the sender's synchronization time. Next the recipient entity receives data comprising a second timestamp and a second distance. The second timestamp being the time the second data was broadcast; the second distance being a distance from the sender's synchronization time. Based on the first and second timestamps and distances, the recipient entity calculates a new synchronization time. Next, the recipient entity broadcasts to at least one entity in the decentralized network data comprising a third timestamp and a third distance. The third timestamp being the time the third data was broadcast; the third distance being a distance from the recipient entity's synchronization time.
