Abstract

In this paper, we briefly examine network synchronisation as proposed for the SECOAS project with the purpose of oceanographic monitoring using a collegiate-managed autonomous network of energy-conscious wireless sensors. We discuss the specific characteristics of a novel protocol SSSNP (Self-Synchronised Sensor Network Protocol) that provides energy savings and facilitates collegiate interaction. We argue that the stateless self-synchronisation techniques and the adaptive control of interference used in SSSNP contribute to substantial energy savings in wireless sensor networks.
