Abstract
Differential time synchronization and scheduling may be provided. A first Access Point (AP) may wirelessly receive time-base translation parameters of a second AP. The first AP and the second AP may be neighboring. Next, a first transmission schedule for the first AP and a second transmission schedule for the second AP may be maintained. Then the second transmission schedule for the second AP may be translated into a time-base of the first AP based on the time-base translation parameters of the second AP. Then the first AP may transmit based upon the first transmission schedule for the first AP and the translated second transmission schedule for the second AP.
