Abstract
The wireless sensor network is a typical distributed system where a standard reference time is prerequisite for all nodes to cooperate with each other. This paper proposes a security cycle clock synchronization method based on mobile reference nodes. First, a periodic synchronization model is established, where nodes are directly synchronized through the periodic movement of mobile reference nodes. Second, we proposed a key management method based on random number authentication to defense various attacks in the network. Through experimental analysis, we can see that this security strategy improves the network security and improves the synchronization accuracy of the whole network.
