“…Minet et al [17] examine different multi-path routing patterns: "Disjoint", "Triangle" and "Braided", with each providing an alternative path to increase reliability. Their results illustrate different performance trade-offs depending on the pattern used.…”

Deterministic networking allows carrying data flows with low data-loss rates and with bounded latency. A typical usecase is the convergence of Operational Technology (OT) with Information Technology (IT), also known as the Industrial Internet. Wireless networks operate on a shared communication medium where the potential external interference along with multi-path fading impact data packet delivery. By employing diversity in the time, frequency and spatial domains, wireless technologies with scheduled transmissions, such as IEEE Std 802.15.4-2015 Time Slot Channel Hopping (TSCH), can mitigate those effects and provide Reliable and Available Wireless (RAW) communications that approach determinism. Nevertheless, a radio link operating in the ISM band still needs to handle collisions and possibly re-transmission. Therefore, It takes redundant links and paths to provide both the high availability and the near consistent reliability that industrial applications require. In this paper, we present the Packet Automatic Repeat reQuest (ARQ), Replication and Elimination (RE), and Overhearing (PAREO) functions to further increase the Quality of Service (QoS) in industrial networks, even when implemented on top of best-effort traffic in a shared network. The results show that PAREO provides up to approximately 6 times lower Packet Error Rate (PER) and up to approximately 10% higher energy consumption than the default RPL implementation with 7 retransmissions, while keeping jitter and latency as low as default RPL with 1 retransmission.

“…If multiple potential parents exhibit the same characteristic, the one with the best ETX will be selected. Minet et al in [6] call this algorithm the "Triangle Pattern". They also present the "Braided patter" which works similarly to the triangle pattern with the main difference being that the AP also has the chance to have an AP too.…”

IPv6 Routing Protocol for Low-Power and Lossy Networks (RPL) is a distance vector routing protocol especially designed for the Internet of Things (IoT). RPL uses broadcast DODAG Information Object (DIO) messages to build a Destination Oriented Directed Acyclic Graph (DODAG) toward a root. Each node selects a parent node toward the root using a common Objective Function (OF). However, the use of a single route can affect the network reliability and the end-to-end latency. In this study, we propose to employ the Packet Replication and Elimination (PRE) principles to use parallel paths toward the DODAG root, over the IEEE 802.15.4 Time-Slotted Channel Hopping (TSCH) as a medium access. To this aim, we propose number of algorithms to select the second or the alternative parent in RPL. Furthermore, we study the advantages of using overhearing feature over correlated paths. Our simulation campaign conducted over Cooja, the simulator of Contiki OS, demonstrate that the use of overhearing in conjunction with PRE in RPL considerably improves the robustness of a wireless network by providing greater opportunity to a packet to reach its destination.

“…In the state of the art, many researchers have investigated the schedule of network communications to meet some requirements in terms of latency [5], [6], energy efficiency [7], [8], reliability [9], or scalability [10], etc.. The solutions proposed are either centralized like in [11], [12], distributed like in [13], [14] or autonomous like in [15].…”

TSCH (Time Slotted Channel Hopping) networks are excellent candidates to support applications of industry 4.0 with latency, energy and reliability requirements. However, such applications have to face topology, traffic or even application changes. How can TSCH networks adapt to such changes? We propose a solution ranging from network construction to data gathering. We show how the schedule can adapt to changing topology, traffic and application conditions. We compute the theoretical bounds with regard to key performance indicators and compare them with the values obtained by NS3 simulation.
