            Abstract : 
This paper presents a new synchronization protocol suitable for light nodes in a Wireless Sensor Network. This protocol, called SISP, is detailed with its algorithm and its sequence diagram. The simulation results obtained with a dedicated simulator are completed by the results of prototyping. The results show the effectiveness of SISP. Several prospects are discussed in conclusion.
