Abstract
This paper introduces the proposed time synchronization approaches to the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) P1451.0 standard-based sensor networks for Internet of Things (IoT) applications. A time synchronization architecture of IEEE P1451.0 standard-based sensor networks is described including two-level time synchronization systems in IEEE P1451.0 and P1451.1.X standards-based wide-area network (WAN) and IEEE P1451.0 and P1451.5.X standards-based local area networks (LANs). However, this paper mainly focuses on the time synchronization approach of IEEE P1451.0 and P1451.1.6 standards-based WANs and provides two implementations of time synchronization of IEEE P1451.0 and P1451.1.6 using wireline and wireless networks with their preliminary results to verify that the time synchronization approach of IEEE P1451.1.6 functions properly. In addition, the time synchronization transducer electronic data sheets (TEDS) of P1451.1.6 is described.
