1. A method of wireless communication, comprising:
- obtaining at least one parameter, wherein the at least one parameter specifies timing for a plurality of data sinks to process data after receipt of a synchronization signal;
providing the at least one parameter to the data sinks;
wirelessly transmitting the synchronization signal to the data sinks; and
wirelessly transmitting the data to the data sinks.

Abstract
A data source sends a synchronization signal and information to several data sinks that use the synchronization signal and a specified parameter to determine when to process the information. The data source and data sinks may comprise wireless nodes such as, for example, a wireless audio source that sends multi-channel data to a pair of wireless earpieces. The wireless earpieces use the synchronization signal and a latency interval to determine the appropriate time to output audio based on the audio channels.
