Timing synchronization is essential in case where multiple sensor nodes with ultrasonic sensors are deployed on the same place. This is because the ultrasonic sensors should be powered at an appropriate timing so as to prevent ultrasonic interference. In this paper, we propose a harmful bird attack system and a new timing synchronization method for ZigBee sensor network. In this timing synchronizing method, by concentrating the processing load to the server, the amount of calculation on each node can be minimized and is unaffected by the increase in the number of nodes. Evaluation of the proposed method has shown that it sufficiently fulfills the timing requirement for the proposed harmful birds attack system.
