  • Control system and associated method for coordinating isochronous devices accessing a wireless network
    Patent number: 6496499
    Abstract: A wireless network having a radio frequency access point and a plurality of isochronous devices wirelessly connected to the radio frequency access point. Each of the isochronous devices receives information from the radio frequency access point including isochronous device identification data and transmission timing data. A microprocessor is connected to the radio frequency transceiver and creates a transmission time-ordered list of the plurality of isochronous devices from the isochronous device identification data and the transmission timing data. A timer provides a timed reference for each isochronous device to transmit to the radio frequency access point according to the transmission time-ordered list. The time-ordered list prevents collision of information being transmitted to the radio frequency access point.
