Routing in intermittently powered IoT networks

Routing in intermittently powered IoT networks

These devices can only work intermittently during power cycles when energy is available, but this is not taken into account by routing protocols. This paper evaluates the standard routing protocol RPL in an intermittent energy harvesting scenario for an IoT network and concludes that RPL is unsuitable due to the large number of lost packets caused by the unavailability of the intermittent node.

Abstract

Internet of Things (IoT) applications have evolved rapidly in the past few years with applications in various domains such as smart cities. Energy harvesting techniques help to extend the lifetime of these devices. These devices can only work intermittently during power cycles when energy is available, but this is not taken into account by routing protocols. This paper evaluates the standard routing protocol RPL in an intermittent energy harvesting scenario for an IoT network and concludes that RPL is unsuitable due to the large number of lost packets caused by the unavailability of the intermittent node.
