Implementation of Dynamic Source Routing using 802.15.4 on XBee Series 1 Modules
Tanmay U. Sane, Samuel L. Shue, James M. Conrad · 2015
An implementation of Dynamic Source Routing on 802.15.4 using XBee Series 1 modules is presented. This implementation demonstrates the use of Dynamic Source Routing to determine the route from initiator (source) node to target (destination) node and used it to deliver message packets within an intra-network of wireless motes. The wireless motes compromise of Atmega 328P based microcontroller board (Red Board) interfaced with XBee Series 1. The algorithm itself searches for the desired route based on first come first serve basis and uses it to forward the message packet to the target node. Due to the dynamic nature of the protocol, the network has self-healing ability. The software library developed in the course of this implementation provides the user an interface to implement customized multi-hopping on XBee Series1 due to absence of any underlying operating system.
