Wireless synchronous time system
First Claim
1. A wireless synchronous time keeping system comprising:
- a primary device includinga first receiving unit to receive a first signal, the first signal including a time component,a first processor coupled to the first receiving unit and operable to process the first signal to produce a processed time component;
a first internal clock to store the processed time component and to increment the component thereafter to produce a first internal time, anda transmitting unit to transmit a second signal, the second signal including the first internal time and an event, the event including an instruction and a time element; and
a secondary device includinga transceiving unit to receive the second signal and transmit a third signal,a second internal clock to store the first internal time and to increment the first internal time thereafter to produce a second internal time, andan event switch operable to execute the instruction when the second internal time matches the time element.

Abstract
A wireless synchronous time keeping system includes a primary device and a secondary device. The primary device includes a receiving unit to receive a first signal having a time component, a processor coupled to the receiving unit and operable to process the signal to produce a processed time component, an internal clock to store the processed time component and to increment the component thereafter to produce a first internal time, and a transmitting unit to transmit a second signal having the first internal time and an event having an instruction and a time element. The secondary device includes a transceiving unit to receive the second signal and transmit a third signal, an internal clock to store the first internal time and to increment the internal time to produce a second internal time, and an event switch operable to execute the instruction when the second internal time matches the time element.
