This paper describes reference broadcast infrastructure synchronization (RBIS), a clock
synchronization protocol for IEEE 802.11 infrastructure wireless networks. The protocol is …

Just like Ethernet before, IEEE 802.11 is now transcending the borders of its usage from the
office environment toward real-time communication on the factory floor. However, similar to …

The possibility of equipping devices on the factory floor with wireless communication has
brought up new applications and challenges. Among one of these challenges is clock …

IEEE 1588 is a new standard to synchronize independent clocks running on separate nodes
of a distributed measurement and control system. It is intended for high-accuracy …

Between the wired and the wireless world a synchronization gap in terms of accuracy
obviously exists due to the different possibilities of the technologies. This paper investigates …

Time-sensitive networking (TSN) is the most promising time-deterministic wired
communication approach for industrial applications. To extend TSN to “IEEE 802.11” …

The lack of provisioning of synchronized timing support from known timing standards in IEEE
802.11 wireless networks has been overcome in IEEE 802.11-2012 through the timing …

The introduction of the precision time protocol has brought forth the possibility to have a
standardised synchronization mechanism in networks, independent from the actual …

Clock synchronization is one of the enabling technologies for real-time networking. This
paper is motivated by the need for WLAN support of real-time factory automation networks …

IEEE 1588 is a standard for precise clock synchronization for networked measurement and
control systems in LAN environment. This paper presents the design and implementation of …
