Abstract:
1. A method for compensation of frequency offset between a first wireless device and a second wireless device, the first wireless device and the second wireless device communicating in order to exchange data packets, the method comprising: transmitting a plurality of frequency synchronization bursts from the first wireless device to a second wireless device, wherein each frequency synchronization burst from the plurality of synchronization bursts is transmitted at a particular, but differing frequency offset from a center frequency, and each frequency synchronization burst from the plurality of synchronization bursts is transmitted at a particular, but differing frequency offset from other frequency synchronization bursts from the plurality of synchronization bursts, and each frequency synchronization burst contains bits representing frequency position information; and transmitting at the center frequency, one or more data packets to the second wireless device.
