Adaptive Synchronization scheme for wireless communication systems

A method of logging the time synchronization activities by each node in the wireless communication network, wherein each node shall record all its synchronization activity event including

• past clock drifts;
• the clock drift rate at different battery power level;
• the clock drift rate at different temperature, and
• the clock drift rate at different pressure
• whereby the node will able to estimate its present drift based on present condition and minimize its attempt for synchronization process.

A system for synchronization in a wireless communication network comprising

• a personal area network controller and a network element;
• means for creating a synchronization frame (SF) in synchronization activity period;
• means for transmitting the synchronization frame to said unassociated child nodes;
• means for, transmitting a ciao frame by the synchronized child nodes after a configurable turn-around time TTA;
• means for receiving synchronization information from said synchronized nodes;
• means for monitoring said child node response for said transmitted synchronization information and verifying whether all child, nodes have been synchronized with the network or not;
• means for verifying whether said ciao frame is getting transmitted by at least one of its child node in the network, and
• means for power savings and efficient power utilization by making the parent node to change its transceiver mode into low power consumption mode till the next synchronization frame or the ciao frame slot, i.e. till next synchronization information slot;
• whereby synchronization is achieved with efficient power utilization by configuring the synchronization periodicity and by getting the synchronized child nodes to share the synchronization process burden.
