Light-weighted Internet protocol version 6 for low-power wireless personal area networks

Abstract

This paper proposes an architectural design of light-weight IPv6 (LWIPv6) for low-power wireless personal area networks (LoWPANs). The LoWPAN is a simple and lowcost wireless communication system, which allows wireless connectivity in a variety of applications with requirements of limited power and relaxed throughput. LoWPAN devices conform to the IEEE 802.15.4 standard specified by the IEEE Computer Society. This paper also suggests how to make IP and IPv6 networking benefits in LoWPANs. Consequently, this paper describes systems requirements analysis (SRA) of LoWPANs with regard to the Internet protocol (IP) layer, also proposes a design of the LWIPv6 architecture focused on LoWPAN, and finally simulates IP communications between LoWPAN devices in a viewpoint of performance analysis. The proposed architecture and protocol in LWIPv6 are substantially optimized for the IP stack, such as header compression, simplified neighbor discovery, and reduction of overhead in the Internet control message protocol (ICMP) functionality.Index Terms -Light-weighted Internet protocol version 6, low-power wireless personal area networks, LWIPv6, LoWPAN

Review on Signalling in Indian Railways and Way for the Future

“…The survey had shown that, there is a lots of scope for improvement in the area of signalling in IR. One of the ways for the future is superseding the existing trackside components with wireless sensor nodes, with the implementation of Time Slotted Channel Hoping (TSCH) following IEEE 802.15.4 for 6LoWPAN [26] networks we can achieve deterministic data transfer with high reliability with cheaper equipment when compared with the current scenario. From the resent trends it is given that the IR revenue has obtained a growth of 22,854.67 crores in the financial year of 2018-19.…”
