Abstract: Recently, Consensus based Clock Synchronization (CCS) algorithms have gained much attention in wireless sensor networks due to its simplicity, distributed nature and robustness. Time synchronization in all networks either wired or wireless is important. It allows for successful communication between nodes on the network. It is, however, particularly vital for wireless networks. Wireless time synchronization is used for many different purposes including location, proximity, energy efficiency, and mobility.

Keywords: Consensus Clock Synchronization, Reference clock, Clock offset, Clock skew
