Abstract

Wireless sensor network (WSN) is a collection of different sensor nodes communicating with each other in a mesh network to improve reliability and prevent link failures. WSN is suffering with scarcity of resources like memory, data rates, throughput and others. WSN integrated with IP can lead to many applications and enables any electronic device to access different networks and use the commonly shared resources. IP stack is not suitable to be ported into the memory of WSN node as it occupies more memory and causes more overhead to WSN. In order to realise such a challenging concept, an experiment is carried out such that a new stack is proposed with middleware, by incorporating different protocol sets in network layer and medium access control (MAC) layers of Zigbee stack. Routing Information Protocol (RIP) and Dynamic Source Routing (DSR) protocols are ported in the network layer of Zigbee stack and Carrier Sense Multiple Access (CSMA) protocol ported in the MAC layer of Zigbee stack while keeping the other layers of the Zigbee stack unchanged. Experimentation results of RIP–CSMA and DSR–CSMA protocol sets are compared and published in this paper.
