摘要:The nature of the Low power and lossy networks (LLNs) requires having efficient protocols capable of handling the resource constraints. LLNs consist of networks that connect different type of devices which has constraints resources such as energy, memory and battery life. Using the standard routing protocols such as Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) is inefficient for LLNs due to the constraints that LLNs need. So, IPv6 Routing Protocol for Low-Power and Lossy Networks (RPL) was developed to accommodate these constraints. RPL is a distance vector protocol that used the object functions (OF) to define the best tree path. However, choosing a single metric for the OF found to be unable to accommodate applications requirements. In this paper, an enhanced (OF) is proposed namely; OFRRT-FUZZY relying on several metrics combined using Fuzzy Logic. In order to overcome the limitations of using a single metric, the proposed OFRRT-FUZZY considers node and link metrics. Namely, Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI), Remaining Energy (RE) and Throughput (TH). The proposed OFRRT-FUZZY is implemented under Cooja simulator and then results were compared with OF0, MHROF in order to find which OF provides more satisfactory results. And simulation results show that OFRRT-FUZZY outperformed OF0 and MHROF.
