Abstract
A method for synchronizing timing of signal transmissions in a telecommunication system (100) determines a 'fixed portion' (222) of the propagation delay between the central unit (102) and subscribers (206, 208) in a particular node (202). Additionally, the method determines a `variable portion` (226) of the propagation delay that accounts for the variation of spacing of different subscribers (e.g., homes (206, 208)) on a particular node (202). The preferred method offsets the control unit's (102) receiving window (410) in accordance with the fixed portion, and directs the various subscriber units (206, 208) to offset the timing of signals (314, 322) (i.e., bursts of data) that they transmit by the variable portion (226).
