摘要: In this paper, we study the global clock synchronization problem for wireless sensor networks. Based on belief propagation, propose a fully distributed algorithm which has low overhead and can achieve scalable synchronization. It is also shown analytically that proposed always converges strongly connected Simulation results show achieves better accuracy than consensus algorithms. Furthermore, obtained at each provides an accurate prediction algorithm's performance in terms of MSE.
