In one embodiment, asynchronous broadcast communication is performed based on time-based events in channel-hopping networks. The embodiments include determining a plurality of channels in a channel-hopping network, on which a plurality of nodes communicate, and identifying an asynchronous broadcast message to transmit from a particular node. A plurality of time-based events is determined, and in response to each time-based event, the asynchronous broadcast message is transmitted on a single selected channel of the plurality of channels per time-based event.
