“…Our simulation studies are conducted with the IEEE 802.11. It is worth to highlight that IEEE 802.11 is usually not considered as the best candidate for LLNs, while IEEE 802.15.4 [4] is viewed as the optimal choice for LLNs. But the routing protocols' general behavior, such as path-length, packet delivery, control overhead, etc, can be concluded from the simulation study with IEEE 802.11 [16], especially for networks with a low data rate.…”

“…Routing plays a crucial role to provide the interoperability among network components. The IETF Routing Over Low-power and Lossy network (ROLL) working group standardizes the IPv6 Routing Protocol for Low Power and Lossy Networks (RPL) [3], [4], [5], which targets highly constrained nodes and large scale networks for LLNs applications. Point-to-point (P2P) communication is a fundamental requirement of most of the LLNs applications.…”

Abstract-Routing plays an important role in the overall architecture of the Internet of Things. IETF has standardized the RPL routing protocol to provide the interoperability for Low-Power and Lossy Networks (LLNs). LLNs cover a wide scope of applications, such as building automation, industrial control, healthcare and so on. LLNs applications require reliable and energyefficient routing support. Point-to-point (P2P) communication is a fundamental requirement of many LLNs applications. However, traditional routing protocols usually propagate throughout the whole network to discover a reliable P2P route, which requires large amount energy consumption. Again, it is challenging to achieve both reliability and energy-efficiency simultaneously, especially for LLNs. In this paper, we propose a novel energyefficient region-based routing protocol, called ER-RPL, which achieves energy-efficient data delivery without compromising reliability. In contrast of traditional routing protocols where all nodes are required for route discovery, the proposed scheme only requires a subset of nodes to do the job, which is the key of energy saving. Our theoretical analysis and extensive simulation studies demonstrate that ER-RPL has a great performance superiority over two conventional benchmark protocols, i.e., RPL and P2P-RPL.

“…Moreover, they proposed an opportunistic version of RPL to improve the delivery of time-sensitive traffic and evaluated the proposal in terms of packet delivery ratio and delay. In recent work [5], they discussed the RPL performance benefits of modifying the IEEE 802.15.4 cluster-tree structure into a "cluster-DAG". Our work was basically motivated by the same problemthe incompatibility of two structures, the 802.15.4 clustertree and the DODAG.…”

“…4 and RPL have been extensively studied within their OSI abstraction layer, the joint operation is surprisingly still an open problem. The existing work in the literature [5] requires extensive modifications to both standards, which is an unrealistic requirement at the current stage of IoT stack development.…”

Abstract-In this paper, we propose a new scheme that allows coupling beacon-enabled IEEE 802.15.4 with the RPL routing protocol while keeping full compliance with both standards. We provide a means for RPL to pass the routing information to Layer 2 before the 802.15.4 topology is created by encapsulating RPL DIO messages in beacon frames. The scheme takes advantage of 802.15.4 command frames to solicit RPL DIO messages. The effect of the command frames is to reset the Trickle timer that governs sending DIO messages. We provide a detailed analysis of the overhead incurred by the proposed scheme to understand topology construction costs. We have evaluated the scheme using Contiki and the instruction-level Cooja simulator and compared our results against the most common scheme used for dissemination of the upper-layer information in beaconenabled PANs. The results show energy savings during the topology construction phase and in the steady state.

This work is based on the characteristics of IEEE 802.15.4 protocol stack. A hybrid topology has been design by using three possible combinations of Zigbee network topologies considered in different scenarios to verify the consistency of this communication network. The scenario has been design under the consideration of device failure in hybrid topologies. There are various parameters like throughput, delay, network load and number hops are measured during these scenarios. The result concludes that Star-Tree hybrid topology is better to make an effective network in case of device malfunctioning. The simulation has been done using OPNET Modeler 14.5. Simulation results enumerate the affect of Zigbee network hybrid topologies on the basis of performance factors.
