This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240430828 titled 'TIME SYNCHRONIZATION ACROSS WIRELESS DEVICES
Original Abstract Submitted
a method includes calibrating, at a wireless device, a wireless fidelity (wi-fi) chipset-level timer based on a time synchronization function (tsf) frame received from a wi-fi access point. the method also includes performing, at the wireless device, a coarse synchronization of a microcontroller-level or cpu-level timer based on the calibrated wi-fi chipset-level timer. the method further includes performing, at the wireless device, a fine synchronization of the microcontroller-level or cpu-level timer after the coarse synchronization. the fine synchronization is performed according to a first time scale measured in first time units and the coarse synchronization is performed according to a second time scale measured in second time units that are a multiple of the first time units.
