End-to-end delay estimation using RPL metrics in WSN

Critical monitoring applications can use wireless sensor networks to transport delay sensitive data. This data may demand bounded delays in order to be considered useful by the receiver. In these cases, an accurate and real-time estimation of the end-to-end delay could be used to anticipate the data usefulness prior to sending it. A novel real-time and end-to-end delay estimation mechanism is proposed in this paper, which considers processing times and two new RPL metrics. Results show that our proposal is more accurate than the ETT-based solution for delay estimation, and it does not significantly degrade the network performance.
