Abstract
Time-Slotted Channel Hopping (TSCH) is the emerging standard for industrial automation and process control low-power and lossy networks. Scheduling function is very crucial in the TSCH-based wireless networks, which defines the packets select which cells to send/receive. But the current industrial wireless standard does not define the function how to adds/deletes/relocates cells between neighbors. In this paper, we propose a decentralized scheduling function, which fully consider the use probability and distance of cell rather than simple random selection. We implement a decentralized scheduling function in 6TiSCH simulator and evaluate its performance experimentally in different cases. The experimental results show that our proposed scheme can reach lower end-to-end latency, as well as no extra costs.
