Abstract

Methods and systems are described herein for time synchronization of a distributed sensor array system ('distributed system'). The distributed system includes multiple sensor nodes, which are time-synchronized using a combination of RF signal data and message-based time techniques across multiple communications mechanisms. Time synchronization is implemented both internally between a sensor node's components and over-the-air between different sensor nodes. The distributed system further employs multiple layers of standardized and custom synchronization protocols to build a scalable, potentially zero-hop, time transfer network. The time synchronization accuracies achieved by the time transfer network enable coherency in the distributed system.
