Lightweight P2P-RPL for Efficient P2P Communication in 6TiSCH Networks
Jeongbae Park, Sang–Hwa Chung · 2022 Thirteenth International Conference on Ubiquitous and Future Networks (ICUFN) · 2022
With the emergence of various IoT applications, P2P functional support in the network is essential. RPL is a routing protocol for low-power loss wireless networks, but there is an inefficient aspect of P2P communication. Although P2P-RPL has been proposed to support P2P of RPL, it is inappropriate to apply it to 6TiSCH networks as it is due to excessive overhead. So, we propose Lightweight P2P-RPL and applied to 6TiSCH Networks. Lightweight P2P-RPL includes five techniques for reducing overhead, and the performance was measured using a 6TiSCH simulator. As a result of the simulation, there was no performance reduction despite providing P2P function.
