SMARTCLOCKS is a method capable of maintaining synchronization between devices that have limited opportunities for re-synchronization with an accuracy of up to 0.1 ppm.
The solution combines the sporadic synchronization of the clock, which takes place during data transmissions, with a correction whose calculation takes into account the prediction of the time drift due to temperature, based on the device’s thermal characterization.
SmartClocks offers the following advantages:
- Automatic synchronization: dispense with packet-based synchronization and the use of external sources such as GPS
- Improves on current high-accuracy wireless network synchronization solutions by up to 10 times (0.1 ppm)
- Minimizes communication overhead caused by synchronization problems
- Optimizes TDMA network reliability with 100% efficiency
- Low-cost solution
- Consumes up to 30% less power
SmartClocks is the perfect solution for data collection scenarios where accurate synchronization and a reduction of energy consumption are vital.
