Wireless sensor networks: a new regime for time synchronization
Abstract
Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) consist of large populations of wirelessly connected nodes, capable of computation, communication, and sensing. Sensor nodes cooperate in order to merge individual sensor readings into a high-level sensing result, such as integrating a time series of position measurements into a velocity estimate. The physical time of sensor readings is a key element in this process called data fusion. Hence, time synchronization is a crucial component of WSNs. We argue that time synchronization schemes developed for traditional networks such as NTP [23] are ill-suited for WSNs and suggest more appropriate approaches.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
