Synchronization in Wireless Sensor Networks

Synchronization in Wireless Sensor Networks is a key problem particularly for the usability of measurements. The idea of synchronizing measurements instead of clocks is particularly explored.

Data packet path of k hops from node 0 towards the sink node (kth). Instead of clock synchronization in a wireless sensor network, measurements are synchronized as they move to the sink in a per hop basis.
