  Abstract

Time synchronization is important role in a network, especially in Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) which is required for time-critical applications such as surveillance, tracking, data fusion and scheduling, Time synchronization in WSN should meet the other different requirements than the one in other networks because WSN has critical resource constraints, especially power consumption, This paper presents a new time synchronization scheme for WSN, which is energy efficient by reducing communication overhead. Simulation test shows this new scheme has better energy efficiency and performance of accuracy than existing schemes proposed previously.
