摘要：
The present invention pertains to a method for providing synchronization between a plurality of wireless body sensors, the method comprising: establishing (1010) a time schedule designating different individual sensors of said plurality of wireless body sensors as a master node for respective consecutive periods of time； operating (1020) said plurality of wireless body sensors whereby said different individual sensors broadcast a periodically repeated synchronization signal during said respective consecutive periods of time； analyzing (1030) an energy consumption and performance pattern of said plurality of wireless body sensors under said time schedule； and updating (1040) said time schedule on the basis of said energy consumption and performance pattern. The invention also pertains to a method for operating a synchronized network of wireless body sensors, a wireless body sensor, a scheduler, and a monitoring system.
