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 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  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  CBR and Zigbee traffic application is evaluated and analysed. The simulation is modelled by using QualNet.

This article presents the problems of powering wireless sensor networks operating in the structures of the Internet of Things (IoT). This issue was discussed on the example of a universal end node in IoT technology containing RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) tags. The basic methods of signal transmission in these types of networks are discussed and their impact on the basic requirements such as range, transmission speed, low energy consumption, and the maximum number of devices that can simultaneously operate in the network. The issue of low power consumption of devices used in IoT solutions is one of the main research objects. The analysis of possible communication protocols has shown that there is a possibility of effective optimization in this area. The wide range of power sources available on the market, used in nodes of wireless sensor networks, was compared. The alternative possibilities of powering the network nodes from Energy Harvesting (EH) generators are presented.

The design of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) in the Internet of Things (IoT) faces many new challenges that must be addressed through an optimization of multiple design objectives. Therefore, multiobjective optimization is an important research topic in this field. In this paper, we develop a new efficient multiobjective optimization algorithm based on the chaotic ant swarm (CAS). Unlike the ant colony optimization (ACO) algorithm, CAS takes advantage of both the chaotic behavior of a single ant and the self-organization behavior of the ant colony. We first describe the CAS and its nonlinear dynamic model and then extend it to a multiobjective optimizer. Specifically, we first adopt the concepts of “nondominated sorting” and “crowding distance” to allow the algorithm to obtain the true or near optimum. Next, we redefine the rule of “neighbor” selection for each individual (ant) to enable the algorithm to converge and to distribute the solutions evenly. Also, we collect the current best individuals within each generation and employ the “archive-based” approach to expedite the convergence of the algorithm. The numerical experiments show that the proposed algorithm outperforms two leading algorithms on most well-known test instances in terms of Generational Distance, Error Ratio, and Spacing.
