Low-power wireless communication is a central building block of cyber-physical systems
and the Internet of Things. Conventional low-power wireless protocols make avoiding packet …

Internet of Things (IoT) is expected to change the everyday life of its users by enabling data
exchanges among pervasive things through the Internet. Such a broad aim, however, puts …

Energy-efficient and robust-time synchronization is crucial for industrial Internet of things
(IIoT). Some energy-efficient time synchronization schemes that achieve high accuracy have …

Energy-harvesting devices have enabled Internet of Things applications that were
impossible before. One core challenge of batteryless sensors that operate intermittently is …

Time synchronization is a fundamental requirement for wireless communication systems to
work properly. Most of the existing studies focus on time synchronization among …

Average consensus theory is intensely popular for building time synchronization in wireless
sensor network (WSN). However, the average consensus-based time synchronization …

Emerging applications like distributed coordinated beamforming (DCB), intelligent reflector
arrays, and networked robotic devices will transform wireless applications. However, for …

Closing feedback loops fast and over long distances is key to emerging applications; for
example, robot motion control and swarm coordination require update intervals of tens of …

Time synchronization in communication networks provides a common time frame among all
nodes, thus supporting various network functions such as message transmission, channel …

In this paper, we present a novel control-theoretic time synchronization algorithm, named
PISync for synchronizing sensor nodes in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). The PISync …
