The lack of survivability in typical wireless sensor network (WSN) synchronization protocols leads to innova- tion in this hot topic
the diffusion-based time synchronization protocol (DTSP) makes nodes maintain themselves onto a global time consensus via local exchanges of timestamp information. DTSP cancels the synchronization root existing in most protocols which may cause security problems
by utilizing time-division and fault-tolerance technology
the surviv- ability is enhanced further. Appling DTSP with typical WSN nodes
experiments give excellent results in survivability
