CCIC-WSN: An Architecture for Single-Channel Cluster-Based Information-Centric Wireless Sensor Networks

The promising vision of information-centric networking (ICN) and its realization, named data (NDN), has attracted extensive attention in recent years the context Internet Things (IoT) wireless sensor networks (WSNs). However, a comprehensive NDN/ICN-based architectural design for WSNs, including specially tailored naming schemes forwarding mechanisms, yet to be explored. In this article, we present single-channel cluster-based WSN (CCIC-WSN), an framework fulfill requirements such as communication between child nodes cluster heads (CHs), association new with CHs, discovery namespace newly associated nodes, node mobility. Through simulation study, demonstrate that CCIC-WSN achieves 71%-90% lower energy consumption 74%-96% retrieval delays than recently proposed frameworks WSNs under various evaluation settings.
