Indicating user input timings associating with gaming

A wireless access point for wireless communication, comprising:

• one or more memories;
• and
• one or more processors, coupled to the one or more memories, configured to cause the wireless access point to:
• transmit a first beacon signal indicating a first reference time value, wherein the wireless access point is associated with a gaming console;
• receive, from a first wireless communication device associated with a first user input device, a first communication comprising first user input data, associated with a first indication of a first user input to the first user input device, and a first input timing value indicating a first input time, associated with the first user input, relative to the first reference time value;
• receive, from a second wireless communication device associated with a second user input device, a second communication comprising second user input data, associated with a second indication of a second user input to the second user input device, and a second input timing value indicating a second input time, associated with the second user input, relative to the first reference time value;
• and
• assign, in association with the first input timing value, the second input timing value, and a tie-breaking scheme, a user input timing order associated with the first user input data and the second user input data, wherein the first input timing value is equal to the second input timing value.

A method for wireless communication performable at a wireless communication device, comprising:

• receiving a first beacon signal associated with a wireless access point, the first beacon signal indicating a first reference time value;
• obtaining, associated with a first input time, a first indication of a first user input to a user input device, wherein the wireless communication device is associated with the user input device;
• and
• transmitting a first communication comprising first user input data, associated with the first indication, and a first input timing value indicating the first input time relative to the first reference time value, wherein the first input timing value is embedded within the first user input data.
