Abstract
A method for estimating reception time of beacon signals includes receiving a beacon from a transmitting device, checking the real-time clock (RTC) of a receiving device, checking a timing synchronization function (TSF) of the received beacon, and estimating a reception time of a next beacon according to the RTC, TSF and a period of the beacon.
