Abstract

Time synchronization is a critical component of the infrastructure of wireless sensor networks (WSN). In a high latency environment such as underwater, traditional approaches to time synchronization have limited accuracy. A new method is describe for time synchronization that takes into account clock skew, clock offset, and also propagation delay. Minimum message communication is used as a performance measure of the quality of this new time synchronization protocol.
