The adoption of the Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) networking in IEEE 802.15.4 sensor networks, using IEEE 1451 standardization, increases the interoperability of low-power smart-sensor devices over IP networks. This paper explains the design and implementation of the IPv6 sensor network over low-power wireless personal-area networks (6LoWPANs), and it uses the IEEE 1451 standard in IEEE 802.15.4 sensor networks.
We propose the design of the 6LoWPAN physical-layer transducer electronic datasheet (PHY-TEDS) using data-type redefinition with the header compression. Each TEDS was analyzed in terms of memory size, obtaining a reduction of 48% in the PHY-TEDS and 25% in themeta-TEDS with respect to the standard definition.
Finally, the IEEE 1451 commands are encapsulated in User Datagram Protocol datagrams to establish communication from the
network capable application processor to the wireless transducer interface module in an environmental monitoring application. |
