Abstract
A system and method for synchronizing a wireless network comprising a first node operable pursuant to a first time-division multiple access (TDMA) scheme and a second node operable pursuant to a second TDMA scheme, wherein the first TDMA scheme and the second TDMA scheme each comprise a plurality of ticks, and wherein the first node and the second node each comprise a tick counter for determining the time moment at which a transmission is made or at which a signal is received by the node.
