Title: Consensus-based Time Synchronization in Wireless Sensor Networks
Abstract: In this talk, we give a brief introduction to consensus algorithms and their applications on time synchronization in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). Time synchronization is a fundamental requirement in WSNs. We first propose a maximum consensus-based time synchronization algorithm, which has fast convergence rate and high synchronization precision compared with the most existing distributed time synchronization algorithms. Then, to deal with the challenges caused by message manipulation attacks, we design novel defense mechanisms to achieve secure distributed time synchronization. Both numerical and experimental results are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithms.
