Abstract:Energy harvesting (EH) devices without batteries can enable the Internet of Things (IoT) to reach new and challenging scenarios. Multihop routing is needed to extend the range but, when low EH causes intermittency, it has been overlooked and is not possible with existing protocols. Also, whilst wake-up receivers (WuRxs) have been used to enable star networks, the cost of another EH node sending wake-ups, required for multihop communication, has not been considered. This paper adapts the opportunistic RPL (ORPL… Show more
