Abstract

In the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) applications, time synchronization assumes a relevant role as in every distributed system. Various protocols and algorithms have been developed for this purpose. Recently, Fractional Low-Power Synchronization Algorithm (FLSA) was proposed as a potential solution for low-power multi-board time synchronization within a Wireless Body Area Network (WBAN). FLSA is based on a fine timer resolution control thanks to a dual-modulus divider. In this paper, we aim to study the impact of the modulus control policy on time synchronization accuracy.
