An Energy-efficient Clock Synchronization Protocol for Wireless Sensor Network

Journal Title: INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF COMPUTER TRENDS & TECHNOLOGY - Year 2014, Vol 10, Issue 1

Abstract

The behavior of Wireless detector (sensor) networks (WDN) is today wide analyzed. One in all the foremost necessary problems is said to their energy consumption, as this contains a major impact on the network time period. Another necessary application demand is to make sure information sensing synchronization, that results in further energy consumption as a high range of messages is distributed and received at every node. Our proposal consists in implementing a combined synchronization protocol supported the IEEE 1588 normal that was designed for wired networks and therefore the PBS (Pair wise Broadcast Synchronization) protocol that was designed for detector networks, as none of them is ready to produce the required synchronization accuracy for our application on its own. The most goals of our new synchronization protocol are: to make sure the accuracy of native clocks up to a tenth of a unit of time and to produce a crucial energy saving. Our results obtained victimization NS-2 (Network Simulator) show that the performance of our resolution (IEEE 1588-PBS) matches our application needs with relation to the synchronization, with a major improvement in energy saving.
