MLE for receiver-to-receiver time synchronization in wireless networks with exponential distributed delays (2014)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

© 2014 IEEE. Receiver-to-receiver time synchronization in wireless networks is considered, and appropriate maximum-likelihood estimators (MLE) for environments with exponential distrusted reception delays are proposed. In the receiver-to-receiver syn... Read More about MLE for receiver-to-receiver time synchronization in wireless networks with exponential distributed delays.

Implementation of high precision synchronization protocols in wireless sensor networks (2014)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Microsecond-level time synchronization is needed in realtime applications of wireless sensor networks. While several synchronization protocols have been proposed, most performance evaluations have been limited to theoretical analysis and simulation,...
