Abstract

Exemplary method, system, device and computer-accessible medium can be provided for synchronizing a plurality of sensor systems with respect to a respective phase for providing data. For example, each of the sensor systems can periodically provide the data. This can be done by, e.g., (i) generating a phase request from at least one processing unit for each of the plurality of sensor systems, whereas the processing unit(s) can be configured to receive the data from the plurality of sensor systems, (ii) analysing all phase requests to ascertain executeability thereof, (iii) generating target phase requests if the phase requests have been determined and/or confirmed as being executable, and (iv) transmitting the respective target phase requests to the respective sensor systems for synchronizing the phases of the plurality of the different sensor systems.
