Abstract

See full text

An access point (AP), station (STA) and method of providing synchronizing the STA are generally described. The STA may transmit to the AP a Fine Timing Measurement (FTM) request and/or trigger frame. The STA may capture a STA Time Synchronization Function (TSF) value of the time the FTM request/trigger frame is transmitted to the AP as determined by the STA. The AP may determine an AP TSF value of the time the of the FTM request/trigger frame was transmitted by the AP as determined by the AP and transmit at least part of the AP TSF time to the STA in a FTM response frame. The STA may compare the STA TSF value and the AP STA value and adjust the STA TSF dependent on the difference between the AP TSF value and the STA TSF value to synchronize to the AP TSF value.
