6LoWPAN Over Optical Wireless Communications for IPv6 Transport in Internet of Things Networks
IEEE Wireless Communications Letters(2022)
摘要
As an emerging technology for the Internet of Things (IoT) wireless connectivity, there have been a lot of research and standardization activities on Visible Light Communications (VLC) and Optical Wireless Communications (OWC) using Light Emitting Diode (LED) lights. In the meantime, the Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) over Low Power Wireless Personal Area Network (6LoWPAN) has been discussed to provide the IPv6-based IoT services in wireless networks. However, the study on IoT systems using 6LoWPAN over OWC networks has not been made so far. This letter proposes a new architectural model to effectively use 6LoWPAN between IoT gateway and IoT device in the OWC-based IoT networks. The proposed model is easy to implement and provides the performance enhancement in OWC-based IoT networks, compared to the general IPv6 model. From testbed experimentations, it is shown that the proposed model provides the delay gain up to 5% and the throughput gain up to 19.52%, compared to the conventional IPv6 transport model.
