Abstract

Systems and methods are described for time synchronization and message scheduling among network elements involving wireless nodes, data controllers, and a network manager. The network manager provides configuration information for the data controllers and the wireless nodes. The wireless node includes a timing circuit with a duty cycle which is initially configured based on the configuration information. Subsequent to the initial configuration, the network manager schedules polling requests for the data controller to transmit to the wireless nodes based on a time at which sensor data is received from the wireless nodes, thereby correcting for timer drift.
