“…It is possible to create full-fledged Internet of Things (IoT) devices on top of the IEEE 802.15.4 medium access control (MAC) and physical layer, by using the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF), Internet Protocol based standards for small autonomous devices [57,58]. Popular platforms like the Zolertia Z1 and RE-Mote support these IETF based stacks and are actively used for research purposes.…”

This paper highlights the benefits and possible drawbacks of a DC-based lighting infrastructure for powering Light Emitting Diode (LED)-lamps. It also evaluates the efforts needed for integrating the so called smart lighting and other sensor/actuator based control systems, and compares existing and emerging solutions. It reviews and discusses published work in this field with special focus on the intelligent DC-based infrastructure named EDISON that is primarily dedicated to lighting, but is applicable to building automation in general. The EDISON "PowerLAN" consists of a DC-based infrastructure that offers telecommunication abilities and can be applied to lighting retrofitting scenarios for buildings. Its infrastructure allows simple and efficient powering of DC-oriented devices like LED lamps, sensors and microcontrollers, while offering a wired communication channel. This paper motivates the design choices for organizing DC lighting grids and their associated communication possibilities. It also shows how the EDISON based smart lighting solution is evolving today to include new communication technologies and to further integrate other parts of building management solutions through the OneM2M (Machine to Machine) service bus.

“…The authors of [3][4][5] show the effectiveness of RPL pertaining to exiguous delay, quick configuration, and self-healing. RPL is a Distance Vector IPv6 routing protocol designed for Low Sensor Networks, it is specifically designed represents the building of Destination Oriented Directed Acyclic Graph (DODAG) using OF0 or MRHOF with a set of constraints/metrics, the purpose is to calculate the best path, the node can operate with multiple OFS concurrently because the distribution varies greatly in different network topologies and different objectives may need to transmit traffic with different necessities of route superiority.…”

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.

“…Therefore, CR technologies would be very helpful for smart grid communications [12], [16]. Recently, a number of studies have been presented, such as literatures [10], [11], [17]- [20], where Routing Protocol for Low Power and Lossy Networks (RPL) are of primary focus. However, in these protocols, one has to calculate the next hop for routing and suit to a mesh network topology due to the sender-based nature.…”

Hamid Aghvami, Fellow, IEEE Abstract-As a tool of overcoming radio spectrum shortages in wireless communications, cognitive radio technology plays a vital role in future smart grid applications, particularly in Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) networks with Quality of Service (QoS) requirements. This paper focuses on the investigation of the receiver-based routing protocol for enhancing QoS in cognitive radio-enabled AMI networks, due to their potentials of enhancing reliability and routing efficiency. In accordance with practical requirements of smart grid applications, a new routing protocol with two purposes is proposed: one is to address the realtime requirement while another protocol focuses on how to meet energy efficiency requirements. As a special feature of cognitive radio technology, the protocol have the mechanism of protecting primary (licensed) users whilst meeting the utility requirements of secondary (cognitive radio) users. System-level evaluation shows that the proposed routing protocol can achieve better performances compared with existing routing protocols for cognitive radio-enabled AMI networks.
