...Moreover, software-based time synchronization approach can be broadly categorized into the following three classes in terms of message direction: Sender–receiver, Receiver–receiver, and Receiveronly approach.(142,145,146) The classification for TSE correction techniques deduced from Noel et al....

...On the contrary, time synchronization protocols were extensively scrutinized to be a solution for the issue of time synchronization in WSNs. Generally, synchronization approach can be broadly categorized into three classes in terms of message direction; Sender– receiver, Receiver–receiver, and Receiver-only.145,146 In the sender–receiver protocol, a single node synchronizes its clock to the reference node clock through bidirectional communication (e.g. timing-sync protocol for sensor networks (TPSNs)151 and flood time synchronization protocol (FTSP)152)....
