Abstract
A magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system () includes a wireless RF station () which is associated with one or more RF coils which sense the magnetic resonance (MR) signal emitted from a subject under MRI examination. The wireless RF station communicates digital data representing the sensed MR signal to an MRI controller () for further processing, which may include display. An internal clock () in the wireless RF station is precisely synchronized with the MRI controller clock (), with carrier phase synchronization and code phase tracking of a predefined code sequence such as a pseudo random number (PRN) sequence.
