Routing-header-embedded Time Synchronization Algorithm for Wireless Sensor Networks
Zhenhua Chen · Jisuanji gongcheng · 2009
A routing-header-embedded low-cost time synchronization algorithm is proposed, which integrates the synchronization into the routing header of the message, and implements the synchronization by putting the precise time-stamp on routing message of both sides of transmitter and receiver. It also avoids the transmission of periodicity time synchronization message, and reduces the energy cost. Simulation experimental results show this algorithm is effective.
