ABSTRACT
Many studies have focused on the impact of Media Access Control (MAC) layer protocols on wireless sensor networks (WSN). In realistic Internet of Things (IoT) scenarios, multiple protocols are used to ensure the efficient operation of the network. IP Header Compression (IPHC) is a well-known packet compression protocol in the IPv6 over Low-Power Wireless Personal Area Networks (6LoWPAN). Time Slotted Channel Hopping (TSCH) is specified as the latest generation of MAC layer protocol in the IEEE 802.15.4e standard. Since the emergence of battery-powered WSN, low cost and low power consumption have become important development directions. This article studies the performance of TSCH on IPHC in terms of energy consumption and compares with Carrier Sense Multiple Access (CSMA). Different metrics were chosen, such as latency, duty cycle, packet delivery rate, and energy consumption. The experiment uses the Contiki-NG operating system to implement network transmission scenarios. The results show that the combination of IPHC and TSCH protocols greatly improves the capability of WSN, and has better performance in terms of energy consumption and duty cycle. Although TSCH exhibits a higher latency than CSMA, it obtains a better packet delivery rate.
