Abstract

A method and system for time synchronization in a mobile device are disclosed. The method includes negotiating a synchronization schedule. The synchronization schedule defines a plurality of synchronization times for receiving synchronization messages. The method further includes transitioning the mobile device from a first state to a second state to receive a synchronization message. The mobile device uses less power in the first state than the second state and the mobile device cannot receive the synchronization message when in the first state. The method further includes synchronizing a clock component in response to receiving the synchronization message.
