Clock Synchronization

چکیده
When Charles V retired in weariness from the greatest throne in the world to the solitude of the monastery at Yuste, he occupied his leisure for some weeks trying to regulate two clocks. It proved very difficult. One day, it is recorded, he turned to his assistant and said: “To think that I attempted to force the reason and conscience of thousands of men into one mould, and I cannot make two clocks agree!” Havelock Ellis, The Task of Social Hygiene, Chapter 9

Delft University of Technology A practical clock synchronization algorithm for UWB positioning systems
A clock synchronization scheme is crucial for obtaining accuracy in time-based positioning systems. Existing clock synchronization schemes are mostly based on a simplified linear clock model, which unfortunately have a poor long-term synchronization accuracy. Assuming a two-way time transfer protocol, we propose a novel clock synchronization algorithm based on a precise physical clock model to ...

Recent advances in technology have made low cost, low power wireless sensors a reality. Clock synchronization is an important service in any distributed system, including sensor network systems. Applications of clock synchronization in sensor networks include data integration in sensors, sensor reading fusion, TDMA medium access scheduling, and power mode energy saving. However, for a number of...
متن کاملLinear Time Byzantine Self-Stabilizing Clock Synchronization
Awareness of the need for robustness in distributed systems increases as distributed systems become an integral part of day-to-day systems. Tolerating Byzantine faults and possessing self-stabilizing features are sensible and important requirements of distributed systems in general, and of a fundamental task such as clock synchronization in particular. There are efficient solutions for Byzantin...
متن کاملNovel Method of Time Synchronization based on IEEE 1588
Abstract Time synchronization based on IEEE 1588 synchronization protocol aims to synchronize the slave clock to the master clock. Conventional synchronization algorithm focuses on calibrating offset of the slave clock with respect to the master clock. In this paper, a novel method of time synchronization is proposed, the proposed method improves the synchronization precision by considering bot...
متن کاملFail-Aware Clock Synchronization
Internal clock synchronization requires that at any point in time the deviation between any two correct clocks is bounded by an a priori given constant. Due to network partitions, unbounded message transmission and process scheduling delays, internal clock synchronization is impossible to implement in asynchronous systems. We address this problem by proposing a new kind of clock synchronization...
متن کاملClock Offset Estimation for Cognitive Global Clock Synchronization Algorithm in Ad-hoc Wireless Sensors Networks
Clock synchronization is a very promising domain in WSNs. Communication delays makes clock synchronization crucial and vulnerable. Every individual sensor node has its own local internal clock and the clock synchronization application requires all nodes to agree on a common time. Contribution of this article is double folded. First this paper introduces a novel fault tolerant algorithm for time...
