“…A lot of research has been done to enhance the working of RPL discuss to handle various challenges such as mobility, high traffic, energy consumption and improved security. We have grouped the work done into the following categories based on desired goals: a) Mobility of nodes [16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27] b) Load balancing under high and uneven traffic conditions [28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37] c) Energy conservation [38][39][40][41][42][43][44][45][46][47][48][49][50] d) Emergency response [51][52][53][54][55] e) Security [74][75][76][77][78][79][80][81]…”

“…In [51], the proposed scheme called Minimum Degree RPL(MD-RPL) attempts to achieve load balancing by minimizing the degree of the DODAG formed using RPL. The node with the maximum degree and hence the maximum number of child nodes is first identified and one of its children is forced to find an alternate parent.…”

RPL (IPv6 Routing Protocol for Low-Power and Lossy Net- works) was developed by IETF (Internet Engineering Task Force) as the protocol for LLNs (low power and lossy networks) that comprise of resource constrained components such as those used in Internet of Things applications. Since then the research community and the industry have come up with many enhancements of RPL aimed at achieving a diverse range of objectives that include better performance under heavy traffic loads, higher throughput, lower packet loss, energy conservation, longer network lifetime, mobility of nodes and enhanced security. This paper presents a review of the various methods proposed to achieve these objectives. A comparative review and a taxonomy of these methods are presented in this paper. We aim to provide valuable insights into RPL and present the foundation for future works.

IETF ROLL working Group standardized the IPv6 Routing protocol (RPL) for applications over low-power and lossy networks (LLNs). RPL constructs a Destination Oriented Direction Acyclic Graph (DODAG) to organize network topology. RPL shows fast network setup and good scalability. However, it may suffer from load imbalance due to diverse network traffic and heavy load on preferred or forwarding parents. To optimize the load balancing of routes in RPL, this paper proposes load balancing metric based routing protocol called lbRPL. We introduce a new routing metric for RPL called load balancing index (LBI), which exploits load balancing characteristics of RPL nodes to select more load balanced parents and routes. LBI includes ETX, Parent count (Pc) and Remaining Parent Energy (Pe) metrics to make routing decisions. Simulation results show that lbRPL improves network performance, stability and improved network life time to RPL.
