The Routing Protocol for Low Power and Lossy Networks (RPL) is operated by gadgets comprised of many devices of embedded type with limited energy, memory as well as resources that do their process. The improvements in the life of the network and energy conservation are the key challenging features in Low Power and Lossy Networks (LLN). Obviously, the LLN has a key strategic part in routing. The Internet of Things (IoT) device is expected to make the apt choice. In LLN, the poor routing choice leads to traffic congestion, reduction in power as well as packet loss ratio. The task in the proposal analyzes Delay (D), Load (L) and Battery Discharge Index (BDI) pivoted Energy Efficient Composite Metric Routing (EECMR) protocol for LLN. The performance of the work in the proposal is evaluated by the COOJA simulator. It outperforms with respect to Network Lifetime (NL), Delay as well as Packet Delivery Ratio (PDR) contrasted to the routing metrics like Traffic Load (TL), Link Quality (LQ), Residual Energy (RE), RE-Battery Discharge Index (RE-BDI) and Hop Count (HC).

The efficient message routing is highly challenging in terms of low power and lossy networks (loT) for transmission of data with overhead and delay. The protocols used for routing need to be designed such that they should be working efficiently. Efficiency in calculated in terms of energy and delivery of packets. RPL protocol is also designed with the aim of making these two parameters efficient. Even then it contains drawbacks. Trickle algorithm is designed with a goal to reduce the drawbacks in RPL. Trickle algorithm is used in RPL protocols for creation of routes between nodes in the network with different intervals. Unfortunately, there exists some more downsides for the trickle algorithm, which made design of several algorithms inorder to analyse different drawbacks. In this paper, on analysing different types of trickle algorithms and locating the drawback in every algorithm, a novel algorithm is designed which helps in reduction of the drawbacks that are found. The description of this algorithm along with the simulation results done using Cooja 3.0 simulator is also discussed in this paper. The Simulation of the algorithm that is newly designed is done by assuming a network with different count of nodes and comparing the results with the previously introduced Trickle algorithms.

IETF ROLL working Group standardized the IPv6 Routing protocol (RPL) for applications over low-power and lossy networks (LLNs). RPL constructs a Destination Oriented Direction Acyclic Graph (DODAG) to organize network topology. RPL shows fast network setup and good scalability. However, it may suffer from load imbalance due to diverse network traffic and heavy load on preferred or forwarding parents. To optimize the load balancing of routes in RPL, this paper proposes load balancing metric based routing protocol called lbRPL. We introduce a new routing metric for RPL called load balancing index (LBI), which exploits load balancing characteristics of RPL nodes to select more load balanced parents and routes. LBI includes ETX, Parent count (Pc) and Remaining Parent Energy (Pe) metrics to make routing decisions. Simulation results show that lbRPL improves network performance, stability and improved network life time to RPL.
