Neo-hybrid Composite Routing Metric for RPL

Energy-based routing metric for RPL

Saving power while ensuring acceptable service levels is a major concern in wireless sensor networks, since nodes are usually deployed and not replaced in case of breakdown. Several efforts have recently led to the standardization of a routing protocol for low power and lossy network. The standard provides various metrics, which can be used to guide the routing. Most protocol implementations us...

New Trust Metric for RPL Routing Protocol

Establishing trust relationships between nodes participating in constructing the routing paths represents a primary security milestone to have reliable routing processes that exclude infected or selfish nodes. In this paper, we propose a new scheme for RPL (Routing Protocol for Low-power and Lossy Networks) named: Metric-based RPL Trustworthiness Scheme (MRTS) to enhance RPL security and deal w...

Five-Nines Reliable Downward Routing in RPL

After a decade of research in low-power data collection, reaching arbitrary nodes has received comparatively little attention. The leading protocol for low-power IPv6 routing, RPL, is no exception, as it is often studied in multipoint-to-point scenarios. As a result, downward routing (from root to node) is still notoriously difficult, holding back the emergence of Internet of Things application...

RPL Routing Protocol in Smart Grid Communication

Smart grid communication emerged to solve the old grid problems. Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) network is a part of smart grid communication, organized of smart meters and concentrators. Concentrator is the gateway for a network of meters sending information in a multihop manner. Reliability and low latency are the major criteria in AMI networks which can be achieved by application con...
