Wireless sensor network applications, similarly to other distributed systems, often require a scalable time synchronization service enabling data consistency and coordination. Thi...
Existing slotted channel access schemes in wireless networks assume that slot boundaries at all nodes are synchronized. In practice, relative clock drifts among nodes cause slot mi...
Time synchronization in highly distributed wireless systems like sensor and ad hoc networks is extremely important in order to maintain a consistent notion of time throughout the ...
