Abstract

See full text

A system and method for establishing ad hoc communication sessions between remote communication terminals is disclosed. A base station transmits a beacon signal including information about the identity and system clock of the base station. Remote terminals within range lock to the base station, synchronizing their system clocks with the base station's clock and setting their hop sequence and hop sequence phase based on information in the beacon signal. To establish an ad hoc communication session, a master terminal first establishes a link to the base station, which establishes a link to a desired slave terminal. The base terminal exchanges information between remote terminals that enables the master terminal to establish a direct communication session with a slave terminal.
