Performance analysis of objective function MRHOF and OF0 in routing protocol RPL IPV6 over low power wireless personal area networks (6LoWPAN)
6LoWPAN is one of the implementations of WSN that using IPv6 as sensor addressing. 6LoWPAN is categorized in the new technology and still being developed. This causes issues about the networks performance to create the communication path and collecting data. Routing Protocol for Low power loosy (RPL) is a routing protocol used in 6LoWPAN. In RPL, there are two kind of objective functions development. Objective function is path selection mechanism when formation of the networks. This research is focus on performance analysis in two objective functions RPL that are Minimum Rank with Hysteresis Objective Function (MRHOF) and Objective Function Zero (OFO) This research observed using COOJA as a WSN simulator. The parameter that observed in this research are: networks convergence time, power consumption, ETX, hop, Packet Delivery Ratio (PDR) latency, PDR in mobility node. Based on the simulation we concluded that MRHOF give better performance than OF0 in terms of network quality. The implementation of MRHOF is suitable for use in sensor network that require data delivery in the reliable network. While OF0 is suitable for use in sensor network that require fast formation network link and low power consumption.
