Abstract

The invention relates to a wireless communication system comprising a plurality of radio devices. Each radio device of the plurality of radio devices is configured to: obtain timing information representing timing schedules of one or more other radio devices within its neighborhood; define, based on the obtained timing information, at least one timing schedule group into which the plurality of radio devices are divided and a size of each at least one timing schedule group; and synchronize its own timing schedule with the timing schedule of the timing schedule group with the largest size. The invention relates also to a synchronization method (500) for the wireless communication system, a radio device for a wireless communication system, and a synchronization method for the radio device.
