Abstract

We present a system of pulse-coupled oscillators (PCOs) based on the resonate-and-fire neuron (RFN) model for an application to clock synchronization protocol for wireless sensor networks. Firstly, we show a novel type of PCO derived from the RFN model and its Type I/Type II phase response properties. Secondly, we demonstrate that global phase synchronization in a network of the RFNs as PCOs are robust against transmission delays. Finally, we propose a possible scheme for compensation of transmission delays.
