Improved-Precision Time Synchronization Protocol for WSNs Based on Averaging Consensus Control


Improved-Precision Time Synchronization Protocol for WSNs Based on Averaging Consensus Control is a scholarly work, published in 2018 in ''IEEE Access''. The main subjects of the publication include synchronizer, node, Petri net, real-time computing, protocol, wireless sensor network, clock synchronization, computer network, distributed computing, data synchronization, synchronization, Network Time Protocol, synchronization, and computer science. The paper provides rigorous analysis of its time synchronization error which is by basic definition the difference between the gateway node time and the average virtual times of the other nodes in the network.
