Abstract
Recently, Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) standardized a powerful and flexible routing protocol for Low Power and Lossy Networks (RPL). RPL is a routing protocol for low power and lossy networks in the Internet of Things. It is an extensible distance vector protocol, which has been proposed for low power and lossy networks in the global realm of IPv6 networks, so it selects the routes from a source to a destination node based on certain metrics injected into the objective function (OF). There has been an investigation of the performance of RPL in the lighter density network. This study investigates the performance of RPL in medium density using of two objective function in various topologies (e.g. grid, random). The performance of RPL is studied using various metrics. For example, Packet Delivery Ratio (PDR), Power Consumption and Packet Reception Ratio (RX) using a fixed Packet Reception Ratio (RX) values.
Highlights
Internet of Things (IoT) is a technology in which everyday objects form an Internet network through where they can communicate with each other
This study will investigate the performance of the two Objective Function (OF) using various metrics like Packet Delivery Ratio, Energy Consumption in the medium density network
RPL is a Distance Vector IPv6 routing protocol designed for Low Sensor Networks, it is designed represents the building of Destination Oriented Directed Acyclic Graph (DODAG) using OF0 or Minimum Rank with hysteresis Objective Function (MRHOF) with a set of constraints/metrics, the purpose is to calculate the best path, the node can operate with multiple OFS concurrently because the distribution varies greatly in different network topologies and different objectives may need to transmit traffic with different necessities of route superiority
Summary
Internet of Things (IoT) is a technology in which everyday objects form an Internet network through where they can communicate with each other. The Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) STANDARDIZED a powerful and flexible Routing Protocol for Low Power and Lossy Networks (RPL). It selects the ideal routes from a source to a destination node based on certain metrics injected into the Objective Function (OF). Many previous studies have investigated the performance of the OF0 and MRHOF objective functions in the light density network. This study will investigate the performance of the two OFs using various metrics like Packet Delivery Ratio, Energy Consumption in the medium density network. In [1], Objective function Zero is the default Objective function in the Routing Protocol for Low-Power and Lossy Networks, OF0 is simple, it selects its parent depending on the minimum ranks of the neighbors. The route cost is calculated by the node by adding the two components, the cost of the nominated measurement and the selected measurement for the connection to a nominee neighbor
