Abstract
There is described an upstream device for translating clock domain for non-synchronized sensors comprising a communication component, a memory component, and a processor. The communication component detects a report received from a sensor that includes a beacon receive time in a sensor clock domain and a current report transmit time in the sensor clock domain. The memory component provides a previous report receive time in the aggregator clock domain and a previous report transmit time in the sensor clock domain. The processor identifies a current report receive time in an aggregator clock domain based on the report detected by the communication component. The processor also determines a beacon receive time in the aggregator clock domain based, at least in part, on the beacon receive time in the sensor clock domain, the current report transmit time, the current report receive time, the previous report receive time, the previous report transmit time.
