Mobile IoT: smart-HOP over RPL
Hossein Fotouhi, Daniel Moreira, Mário Alves · 2014
The 6loWPAN (the light version of IPv6) and RPL (routing protocol for low-power and lossy links) protocols have become de facto standards for the Internet of Things (IoT). In this paper, we show that the two native algorithms that handle changes in network topology --the Trickle and Neighbor Discovery algorithms-- behave in a reactive fashion and thus are not prepared for the dynamics inherent to nodes' mobility. Many emerging and upcoming IoT
