The Network Time Protocol (NTP) is widely deployed in the Internet to synchronize computer clocks to each other and to international standards via telephone modem, radio and satel...
Abstract—Packet delay traces are important measurements for analyzing end-to-end performance and for designing traffic control algorithms in computer networks. Due to the fact t...
— Since WSNs have restricted energy sources, the energy efficiency of a synchronization scheme is as important as the accuracy of a clock. To accomplish both the energy efficienc...
Clock synchronization is a crucial basic service in typical sensor networks, since the observations of distributed sensors more often than not need to be ordered ("a happened...
Most of the existing clock synchronization algorithms for wireless sensor networks can be viewed as proactive clock synchronization since they require nodes to periodically synchro...
