This article introduces a implementation method which is improved upon IEEE 1588 protocol.The ZigBee network bandwidth costs are reduced by simplifying the follow-up messages in IEEE 1588 protocol.Meanwhile,the initiator of the synchronization is changed from the master node to the slave node to adapt the real-time join and leave feature of ZigBee node.The experiment proved that this algorithm is suitable for high precision time synchronization.
