Simulation Study on Time Synchronization Based on RBS in Wireless Sensor Networks

Article Preview

Abstract:

Time synchronization is important for wireless sensor networks. In this paper RBS time synchronization algorithm principle and EECH routing protocol are introduced, and the simulation of RBS on the basis of EECH routing protocol is realized using the Synsinc software. The average synchronization error of the simulation is 25.86 us.This value is basically same with other types of simulation, which confirmed the simulation is credible.
