Abstract
The wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are special network which has purpose of gathering information in certain area. Multipath routing is the paramount path of addressing QoS and energy balancing concerns in low power and lossy networks (LLNs) especially in IoT technology. Most of the extant efforts bring the limited number of disjoint paths into play, and intersect the traffic among them pursuant to a compound metric or centralized optimization problem. This paper proposes a multi-class multipath routing protocol for LLNs (called M2RPL), that construct a braided multipath routing graph based on the standard RPL (IPv6 Routing Protocol for Low-Power and Lossy Networks) protocol, and an energy balanced optimal rate assignment mechanism (EBORA) that solves a local multi class optimization problem for minimum cost traffic rate assignment. Moreover, the algorithm tries to maximize network lifetime by equalizing the energy dissipation rates of equi-level nodes. The simulation results expose the efficiency of the proposed framework, leading to an average 15% increase in lifetime, and improved QoS performance in terms of delay and reliability, compared to some well-known algorithms.
