Performance Evaluation of Routing Protocol (RPL) for Internet of Things

Abstract

Recently, Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) standardized a powerful and flexible routing protocol for Low Power and Lossy Networks (RPL). RPL is a routing protocol for low power and lossy networks in the Internet of Things. It is an extensible distance vector protocol, which has been proposed for low power and lossy networks in the global realm of IPv6 networks, so it selects the routes from a source to a destination node based on certain metrics injected into the objective function (OF). There has been an investigation of the performance of RPL in the lighter density network. This study investigates the performance of RPL in medium density using of two objective function in various topologies (e.g. grid, random). The performance of RPL is studied using various metrics. For example, Packet Delivery Ratio (PDR), Power Consumption and Packet Reception Ratio (RX) using a fixed Packet Reception Ratio (RX) values.
