Abstract
A method adapts a time synchronization between a mobile device and a transceiver module of a plurality of transceiver modules, wherein the method is performed by the transceiver module. The method includes listening, in at least some of a plurality of time slots, for a time synchronization signal from a further transceiver module of the plurality of transceiver modules, wherein each time slot of the plurality of time slots is allocated to a corresponding transceiver module of the plurality of transceiver modules. The method also includes adapting the time synchronization when a received time synchronization signal has a higher estimated accuracy than the time synchronization between the mobile device and the transceiver module. The method further includes transmitting a time synchronization signal for the further transceiver modules based at least in part on the time synchronization between the mobile device and the transceiver module.
