Abstract

Energy efficiency has received extensive attention in energy-constrained Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). As is known, radio communication accounts for major energy consumption of wireless device and the control of radio transmitter can make effective function with energy efficiency system. In this paper we test and analyse the relationship between precision and synchronization rate and we also give an initial model denote for the relationship among synchronous cycle, time error and energy consumption. The experiments and analysis in the paper show the feasibility of long cycle time synchronization for WSNs under certain limitation and the result will be helpful for the time synchronization method with low energy consumption.
