Abstract

A first station including a transceiver, a control module, first counters, and a generation module. The transceiver receives information from a second station. The control module generates an adjustment signal based on the information to synchronize the first station to the second station. The first counters, based on the adjustment signal, generate respective count values. The first counters comprise a first counter and second counters. The count value of the first counter is indicative of an amount of time within a first slot of a time division multiple access (TDMA) channel. Each of the count values of the second counters is based on one of the other count values of the first counters. The generation module, in response to the count values of the first counters, generates a control signal. The transceiver, based on the control signal, transmits data in a second time slot on the TDMA channel.
