Performance evaluation of lightweight and secure protocol for wireless sensor networks: A protocol to enable Web services in IPv6 over low-power wireless personal area networks

With the rapid development of Internet of things, IPv6 has been introduced into wireless sensor networks and widely used in many areas. It is significant to develop routing devices to connect wireless sensor networks and the Internet based on IPv6 technology. In this paper, we present a 6LoWPAN (IPv6 over Low power Wireless Personal Area Networks) border router scheme. The hardware design and software design are discussed and the experimental results demonstrate the feasibility of the router scheme. By using the proposed border router, the network can achieve end-to-end communications between 6LoWPAN nodes and IPv6 hosts in a universal method.

Abstract Different applications of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) have different expectations from the working of Medium Access Control (MAC) protocols. Some value reliability more than delay incurred while some demand a fair trade-off for the factors like: Throughput, Bit Error Rate (BER) etc. This paper evaluates the performance of Wireless Personal Area Networks (WPANs) from 802.15.4 group for WSNs with modified algorithm which helps in reducing the Medium Access Delay and Delay in reaching of the packet from one end to another end. In this paper certain modifications to existing algorithm have been proposed for reducing the Medium Access Delay and to reduce the number of packets dropped. The result comparisons on the performance parameters like: network output load, generated acknowledged traffic, media access delay, battery consumed and delay in packet transmission from one end to another end that the back-off number & exponent values used for transmission play vital role for improving the performance of WSNs as they directly affect the number of packets dropped, successfully acknowledged and Medium Access Delay.

Ieee 802.15.4 Standard

IEEE 802.15.4 standard based wireless sensor networks (WSNs) emerges as the next generation wireless standard for low-rate wireless personal area networks. IEEE 802.15.4 standard offers low power, low data rate and short range networking for wireless battery powered devices. It has also started to demand much attention towards research. The performance of the network can be analysed by using different types of routing protocols. In this paper, the performance analysis of IEEE 802.15.4 based Wireless Sensor Networks is done by using Â Location Aided Routing (LAR) protocols for the traffic applications such as Constant Bit Rate (CBR) and Zigbee traffic application. The LAR protocol enables the routing of data between the source and destination by using directional flooding technique. The performance metrics such as throughput, delay, jitter and packets dropped of LAR for Â CBR and Zigbee traffic application is evaluated and analysed. The simulation is modelled by using QualNet.
