Analysis of Distributed Consensus Time Synchronization with Gaussian Delay over Wireless Sensor Networks

Analysis of Distributed Consensus Time Synchronization with Gaussian Delay over Wireless Sensor Networks

This paper presents theoretical results on the convergence of the distributed consensus timing synchronization (DCTS) algorithm for wireless sensor networks assuming general Gaussian delay between nodes. The asymptotic expectation and mean square of the global synchronization error are computed. The...
