Low Power Networks are spreading worldwide, seeking to enable small devices to join wireless networks. This requires a routing mechanism that makes it possible and seamless. This research aims to create a Low Power and Lossy Networks (RPL) routing protocol that balances power usage and node dependability. The main emphasis of the algorithm presented here is the choice made by network nodes (Zigbees) regarding which path to deliver the message along. Results for this routing technique seem promising. Utilizing it increased packet transfer reliability while enforcing power conservation. Furthermore, a 10% reduction in the network's overall power consumption was made.
