To acquire the global synchronization in distributed manner, we propose a novel distributed frequency synchronization (DFS) method. DFS is a method that carrier frequencies of distributed nodes converge to a common value by repetitive estimation and averaging step and sharing step. Experimental results show that DFS achieves noteworthy better synchronization success probability than existing schemes in OFDMA-based mesh networks where the estimation error is presented. }, journal = {International Journal of Electronics and Communication Engineering}, volume = {6}, number = {10}, year = {2012}, pages = {1211 - 1215}, ee = {https://publications.waset.org/pdf/6297}, url = {https://publications.waset.org/vol/70}, bibsource = {https://publications.waset.org/}, issn = {eISSN: 1307-6892}, publisher = {World Academy of Science, Engineering and Technology}, index = {Open Science Index 70, 2012}, }
