Time Synchronization for Data Communication in the Wireless Network Systems

Time synchronization is very important for the data communication in the wireless network systems. Time synchronization is the main factor which has to be considered in wireless networking. The problem of time synchronization often results in delay of data transmission and reception. The synchronization problem occurs during the signal propagation time, sending time, receiving time and accessing time. The two main wireless sync protocols are Timing-sync Protocol for Sensor Networks (TPSN) and Reference Broadcast Synchronization (RBS). This paper focuses on the synchronization problems that occur in wireless data communication and analysis between the two synchronization protocols. This paper will also provide the solutions for the delay in data communication
