Efficient and low power utilizing clock synchronization is a challenging task for a wireless-sensor network (WSN). Therefore, it is crucial to design a light weight clock synchronization protocols for these networks. An adaptive clock offset prediction model for WSN is proposed in this paper that exchanges fewer synchronization messages to improve the accuracy and efficiency. Timing information required is collected by setting a small WSN set up to investigate the soil condition to control the irrigation in agriculture. The networks investigate soils moisture, temperature, humidity, and pressure content along with the sensors clock offset. First, the prediction model perceives the existing sensor clock offset to observe the clock characteristics and delay. Then, a Gaussian function is applied for adjusting the parameters weight of the observed value in the prediction model. The system results demonstrate that the proposed adaptive non-linear Gaussian regression synchronization model utilizes 20% less energy as consumed by time sync protocol for sensor-network and reference broadcast synchronization Protocol. It also reduces the synchronization error with respect to root-mean-square error (RMSE) by 24.85% as compared to linear prediction synchronization with RMSE 28.72% in terms of accuracy.
