Wireless Sensor Network(WSN) consists of a lot of light-weight sensor nodes with the capability of wireless communication. Studies have been done to improve stability and fault-tolerancy of WSN because the sensor nodes are basically vulnerable to the harsh environment. Specially, the time synchronization among sensor nodes becomes a challenging issue in WSN. All the local times should always keep the same with each other in the sensor field to perform data aggregation and energy-aware communication in WSN. In this paper, a new time synchronization technique is proposed to operate efficiently irrespective of the number of sensor nodes and the number of hops needed to cover all sensor nodes for synchronization. Simulation results show that the proposed technique has the lowest amount of packet traffic among the several time synchronization techniques.
