Real-time clock synchronisation in underwater acoustic networks

摘要: This paper proposes an algorithm for real-time clock synchronisation in underwater acoustic networks. The models modem clocks as linear functions and embeds the data necessary procedure time stamps that can be communicated payload of later messages only when necessary, hence limiting communication overhead. proposed solution takes explicitly into account limitations channel network node mobility. Specific implementation issues are discussed its deployment within operational Experimental results given from COLLAB-NGAS14 campaign, held October 2014 off coast West Italy.
