Abstract

In order to become truly ubiquitous, the Internet of Things (IoT) has to evolve to provide connectivity anytime, any place, for any thing. IEEE 802.15.4-based wireless personal area networks (WPANs) is a preferable communication method for IoT. Wireless personal area networks (WPANs) are used to convey information over relatively short distances. Connections effected via WPANs involve little or no infrastructure. And the IEEE 802.15.4 protocol proposes a flexible communication solution for time-sensitive Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) applications due to the Guaranteed Time Slot (GTS) medium access control mechanism. Several OPNET simulations were done to evaluate the performance of GTS allocation mechanism, which providing a basis direction for further analysis.
