Method and apparatus for tdma slot synchronization and calibration of master and slave

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a method and an apparatus for TDMA slot synchronization and calibration of a master and a slave. The method includes: receiving a synchronizing frame from a master by at least one slave, in which the synchronizing frame includes a first count value of a timing counter of the master; analysing the synchronizing frame by the at least one slave to acquire the first count value; adjusting a TDMA slot of each slave according to the first count value and a second count value of a timing counter of the slave to synchronize the TDMA slot of the slave with a TDMA slot of the master. It can be seen that the synchronization is realized by directly using the respective clock sources of the master and the slave, without addition of the clock source of the RTC or the GPS module, thus reducing the cost and improving the accuracy.
