Since the pulse-based master synchronization adopts decision feedback, its stability analysis involves the control theory.
In other words, without any bit transitions, the decision of the bit synchronization process would be based solely on noise.
In the case that there are error decisions of acquisition, the master synchronization has a problem of mistaking non-synchronous status as synchronous status, which is defined by false alarm probability.
The signal model, frame structure, and channel conditions used for performance evaluation are introduced in Section 2. In Section 3, a brief review and comparison of existing decision metrics for the frame synchronization are given, and the proposed method is presented.
Moreover, the drop decision is made probabilistically to mitigate flow synchronization problems (also known as the lock-out problem) described in [4].
The decision module receives beacons from the time synchronization module, makes a decision about beacon destination, and sends it to the subsequent inner nodes by consulting the ' SNs' positions and camera orientations table'.
Delays contaminate decision-making and lead to poor performance, synchronization problems and fluctuations in inventory levels resulting in major economical losses.
It is possible to reduce the number of faulty decisions when using clock and sampling rate synchronization.
Note that in case of reconnection, where the synchronization process should be enabled, the decision module exchanges also signals with the inverter agents.
There has been a considerable search for methods to appropriately study population activity, especially among neurocomputation studies related to perceptual decision making [15] [18], central pattern generator [19] [21] and synchronization [15].
