Chua's circuit is a simple electronic network which exhibits a variety of bifurcation and attractors. The circuit consists of two capacitors, an inductor, a linear resistor, and a nonlinear resistor. In this paper, a transmitter and a receiver using two identical Chua's circuits are proposed and a synchronizations of lossless transmission line are investigated. Since the synchronization of the transmission system is impossible by coupled synchronization, the drive-response synchronization theory were used. As a result, the chaos synchronization has delay characteristics in the lossless transmission system caused by the line parameters L and C.

In this paper, we analyses transmission performance of communication security(COMSEC) bit synchronization information over the single channel ground and airborne radion system in variable message format system. Experimental results demonstrate the robust characteristics of the COMSEC bit synchronization information in 10-1 $\~$ 10-5 of bit error channel and the relationship of time duration of bit synchronization and probability of synchronization detection.

This article presents a circuit and a system for IEEE 1588 based clock synchronization to generate a very accurate frequency signal required in femtocell devices. A prototype board and the experimental environment to verify the functions and to evaluate the performance are explained to verify the feasibility of the proposed synchronization system. To make low-cost femtocells without constraints on the place of installation, it is very important to study on the practical implementation of synchronization system based on IEEE 1588. The experimental result shows that the synchronization errors between -16 ns and 9 ns are guaranteed over the network of femtocell devices with the proposed synchronization circuits, thus the synchronization criteria of the 3GPP HNB are met.

TPSN(Timing-sync Protocol for Sensor Networks), the representative of time synchronization protocol, has been already developed to provide time synchronization among nodes in wireless sensor networks. Even though the TPSN's method has been referenced by so many other time synchronization schemes for resource-constrained networks like wireless sensor networks or low power personal area networks, it has some inefficiency in terms of power consumption and network-wide synchronization time (or called convergence time). The main reason is that each node in TPSN needs waiting delay to solve the collision problem due to simultaneous transmission among competing nodes, which causes more power consumption and longer network convergence time for a network-wide synchronization. In this paper an improved scheme is proposed by changing message exchange method among nodes. The proposed scheme not only shortens network-wide synchronization time, but also reduce collision traffic which lead to needless power consumption. The proposed scheme's performance has been evaluated and compared with an original scheme by simulation. The results are shown to be better than the original algorithm used in TPSN.

In wireless sensor networks Time synchronization used to be performed after routing tree is constructed. It results in increasing the number of packets and energy consumption. In this paper, we propose a time synchronization algorithm combined with flooding routing tree construction algorithm, which applies LTS (Lightweight Time Synchronization) information packed into the forwarding and backward routing packets. Furthermore, the proposed algorithm compensates the time error due to clock drift using the round time with fixed period. We prove that the proposed algorithm could synchronize the time of among sensor nodes more accurately compared to TSRA (Time Synchronization Routing Algorithm) using NS2 simulation tool.

Time synchronization is a prerequisite in wireless sensor network applications such as object tracking, consistent state update, duplication detection, and temporal order delivery. This paper analyze time synchronization accuracy of pair-wise time synchronization algorithm which is a typical time synchronization model of time synchronization method in wireless sensor networks. In addition, the analyzed results are verified by simulations. These results can be utilized for performance improvement or development of time synchronization in wireless sensor networks.

This paper deals with distributed time and frequency synchronization algorithms using the flocking technique for OFDMA-based wireless mesh networks. We propose a time and frequency synchronization model taking into account channel propagation delays existing in wireless mesh networks, and analyze the convergence condition of the proposed synchronization algorithm. Convergence performance of the proposed synchronization algorithm is analyzed via computer simulation in terms of synchronization parameters in the time and frequency synchronization model.

A synchronization method is presented for IEEE 802.11a wireless OFDM system. First the coarse symbol synchronization is achieved by measuring the moving power average of the received envelope signal. The detection probabilities and optimum thresholds for the symbol synchronization are derived. By measuring the correlation between the short training signal and received envelope signal, fine symbol synchronization can be acquired. And the frequency synchronization is achieved using long training signal. A symbol synchronization error causes a phase rotation of the constellation. After the compensation for fading channel, the rotation due to the symbol timing error can be corrected. With this method, synchronization can be well achieved over frequency selective channels.

This paper proposes the Byzantine fault tolerant clock synchronization scheme for wireless sensor networks to cope with the clock synchronization disturbance attack of malicious nodes. In the proposed scheme, a node which is requiring clock synchronization receives 3m+1 clock synchronization messages not only from its parent nodes but also from its sibling nodes in order to tolerate malicious attacks even if up to m malicious nodes exist among them. The results show that the proposed scheme is 7 times more resilient to the clock synchronization disturbance attack of malicious nodes than existing schemes in terms of synchronization accuracy.

The synchronized clock performance in the synchronization network and SDH transmission network design is an important element in aspect of guaranteeing network stability and data transmission. Consequently the simulator which can applicable various parameters and several input levels from the best state to the worst state for performance analysis of the synchronized clock is required in case of network design. Therefore, in this paper, 1 developed the SNCA and TNCA for analysis of the synchronized clock in the synchronization network and transmission network. And utilizing these simulators with various wander generation, node number and clock state, 1 obtained the synchronized clock characteristics and maximum network nodes In NE1, NE2 and NE3 transmission network and DOTS1, DOTS2 synchronization network.
