Abstract
An aspect of the present disclosure enables each receiver node of a wireless network to synchronize active widows with those of the sender node. In an embodiment, a receiver node receives a packet from a sender node on a wireless network, with the packet including data indicating a position of the packet in an active window of the sender node. The receiver node determines the position at which the packet is received in an active window of the receiver node. The receiver node determines a difference between the two positions and adjusts a start position of the next active window (of the receiver node) based on the determined difference to synchronize the future active windows at the receiver node to respective active windows at the sender node.
