摘要: Existing terrestrial synchronization protocols including RBS, FTSP, TPSN, LTS and TSHL have already achieved high precision in radio networks, but none of them perform well latency networks like acoustic sensor networks. In this paper, we present Tri-Message: a lightweight time protocol for resource-constrained As its name suggests, only three message exchanges are required one process. Meanwhile, Tri-Message utilizes very simple mathematical operations to calculate the clock skew offset. Specially, is feasible many extremely long applications such as space exploration because it has an increasing with increasement distance.
