Abstract
This work presents a first approach to wireless underwater sensor networks UWSN time synchronization, using OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) acoustic communication and time reference served by a synchronization protocol. This synchronization and type of modulation allows getting a low drift clock on each sensor, on a high efficiency underwater communication network.
