Performance Analysis of Routing Protocol for Low Power and Lossy Networks (RPL) in Large Scale Networks

With growing needs to better understand our environments, the Internet-of-Things (IoT) is gaining importance among information and communication technologies. IoT will enable billions of intelligent devices and networks, such as wireless sensor networks, to be connected and integrated with computer networks. In order to support large scale networks, IETF has defined the routing protocol for low power and lossy networks (RPL) to facilitate the multihop connectivity. In this paper, we provide an in-depth review of current research activities. Specifically, the large scale simulation development and performance evaluation under various objective functions and routing metrics are pioneering works in RPL study. The results are expected to serve as a reference for evaluating the effectiveness of routing solutions in large scale IoT use cases.
