Network Time Synchronization Technologies

The accurate and efficient operation of many applications and protocols in wireless sensor networks require synchronized notion of time. To achieve network-wide time synchronization, a common strategy is to flood current time information of a reference node into the network, which is utilized by the de facto time-sync…

In this article, a new TDMA based wireless sensor network (WSN), MILMON, is proposed for military monitoring. The most important design considerations of MILMON are energy consumption, delay, scalability, and fault tolerance. There are three main components of the system: a new time synchronization schema based on the…

Synchronization to an external time source such as Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), i.e., external synchronization, while preserving tight synchronization among neighboring sensor nodes may be crucial for applications such as determining the speed of a moving object in wireless sensor networks. However, existing time…

Precise time synchronization has become a critical component of modern power systems. There are several available methods for synchronizing the intelligent electronic devices (IEDs) in a power system. In recent years, there has been great interest in providing time to the IEDs using the same infrastructure through whi…

In pursuit of better energy efficiency and enhanced network lifetime in wireless sensor networks (WSNs), two crucial factors are data packet size and transmission power level. On one hand, smaller packet size reduces the overall impact of bit error rates on packet loss. However, the consequence of smaller packet size…
