6LoWPAN 센서 노드의 이동성을 지원하기 위해 기존의 Mobile IPv6 (MIPv6)와 같은 프로토콜을 활용하는 것은 저전력에 제한적 사양의 하드웨어로 구성된 6LoWPAN 센서 노드에서 구동되는 것이 현실적으로 불가능하다. 따라서 Mobile Access Gateway (MAG)가 6LoWPAN 센서 노드의 이동시 발생하는 바인딩 시그널링을 대신 처리해주는 Proxy Mobile IPv6 (PMIPv6) 프로토콜을 6LoWPAN에 적용하면 효율적으로 이동성을 지원할 수 있다. 하지만 Proxy Mobile IPv6는 6LoWPAN 이동 센서 노드와 1홉으로 연결되는 경우에 6LoWPAN 이동 센서 노드의 이동을 인지하고 Proxy Binding Update(PBU)를 하게 되지만, 6LoWPAN 센서 네트워크와 같이 멀티 홉으로 구성되는 네트워크에는 Proxy Mobile IPv6를 바로 적용할 수 없다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 기존의 1홉 단위로 연결된 6LoWPAN 이동 센서 노드의 이동성을 지원하는 Proxy Mobile IPv6 프로토콜을 멀티를 환경의 6LoWPAN 센서 네트워크에 적용하기 위한 방법을 제안한다.

6LoWPAN 단위의 네트워크 이동성을 지원하는 6LoWPAN Mobile Router 들이 중첩된 네트워크를 형성하였을 때, 6LoWPAN 노드와 CN 간의 통신을 할 경우 패킷 전달을 위한 경로 최적화가 이루어지지 않는다. 특히 NEMO 프로토콜이 적용된 6LoWPAN 네트워크의 중첩된 레벨이 증가하는 경우 패킷 전달을 위한 루트가 더욱 복잡해지고 오버헤드가 커지는 문제가 발생한다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 MANEMO 기술을 6LoWPAN 환경에 맞게 적용하여 중첩된 6LoWPAN 네트워크를 형성하지 않고 6LoWPAN Mobile Router 간에 Ad-hoc 네트워크를 형성하여 직접적인 통신이 가능하도록 네트워크를 구성함으로써 NEMO 환경에서의 터널링 오버 헤드 문제를 줄이고 통신 경로를 최적화하여 패킷 전송 지연을 최소화할 수 있는 방안을 제시한다.

6LoWPAN based on IEEE 802.15.4 is a realistic standard platform for various Internet of Things (IoT) applications. To bootstrap the LoWPAN (Low-power Wireless Personal Area Network), each device must perform 6LoWPAN-ND address registration to assign a unique IPv6 address. Without adequate security mechanisms, 6LoWPAN-ND is vulnerable to a variety of security attacks including corrupted node attacks. Several security mechanisms have been proposed as a supplement to the vulnerability, but the vulnerability exists because it relies solely on IEEE 802.15.4 hop-by-hop security. In this paper, we propose and analyze a vulnerability of 6LoWPAN-ND address registration and a new security mechanism suitable for preventing the attack of damaged node. It also shows that the proposed security mechanism is compatible with the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) standard and is more efficient than the mechanism proposed in the IETF 6 lo WG.

6LoWPAN is a standard to enable IPv6 packets to be carried on top of low power wireless networks. It needs to achieve security in 6LoWPAN, which is being defined at the 6LoWPAN working group of the IETF. IPSec is already part of IPv6, which makes it a candidate to be directly employed or adapted for WSNs. Some results showed that the adoption of IPSec is viable, and also point towards the successful design and deployment of security architecture for WSNs. IPSec requires two communicating entities to share a secret key that is typically established dynamically with the IKE. However, there are some limitations to use IKE on wireless networks. In this article, we show requirements for being Efficient Key management Mechanism for IPSec on 6LoWPAN and analyze candidate protocols.

In mobile healthcare applications, the reliable transmission of the bio-data is very important. In this article, we present a reliable bio-data transmission technique for mobile healthcare monitoring service at 6LoWPAN multi-hop wireless networks. In particular, we expand IEEE 11073-20601 protocol, and propose the reliable path construction for 6LoWPAN aimed to reliably provide mobile healthcare service over wireless sensor network, using IPv6 network. 6LoWPAN is recognized possibility because it is agree with sensor network by raising Adaptation layer on the MAC layer to transmit IPv6 packets. In this article proposed minimize the algorithm complexity and reliability routing protocol because the 6LoWPAN devices are suitable for low cost, small size and battery that can be used to health care system environment. And detailed procedures and algorithms are presented. We the proposed method to prove the superiority of using NS-3 for compareing with AODV protocol.

The 6LoWPAN(IPv6 Low-power Wireless Personal Area Network) performs IPv6 header compression, TCP/UDP/IGMP header compression, packet fragmentation and re-assemble to transmit IPv6 packet over IEEE 802,15.4 MAC/PHY. However, from the point of view of security. It has the existing security threats issued by IP packet fragmenting and reassembling, and new security threats issued by 6LoWPAN packet fragmenting and reassembling would be introduced additionally. If fragmented packets are retransmitted by replay attacks frequently, sensor nodes will be confronted with the communication disruption. This paper analysis security threats introduced by 6LoWPAN fragmenting and reassembling, and proposes a re-transmission mechanism that could minimize re-transmission to be issued by replay attacks. Re-transmission procedure and fragmented packet structure based on the 6LoWPAN standard(RFC4944) are designed. We estimate also re-transmission delay of the proposed mechanism. The mechanism utilizes timestamp, nonce, and checksum to protect replay attacks. It could minimize reassemble buffer overflow, waste of computing resource, node rebooting etc., by removing packet fragmentation and reassemble unnecessary.

The Network Mobility (NEMO) and IPv6 over Low power WPAN (6LoWPAN) protocols are the two most important technologies in current networking research and are vital for the future ubiquitous environment. In this paper, we propose a compressed packet header format to support the mobility of 6LoWPAN. Also, a Lightweight NEMO protocol is proposed to minimize the signaling overhead between 6LoWPAN mobile routers and 6LoWPAN gateways by using a compressed mobility header. Performance results show that our Lightweight NEMO protocol can minimize total signaling costs and handoff signaling delay.

IETF 6LoWPAN standard technique has been studied in IoT environment to support the IPv6 packet communication. 6LoWPAN protocol for transmission of packets mainly in the AODV routing protocol and a variety of extended techniques have been investigated. In particular, consisting of nodes with limited resources in a network error occurs when the 6LoWPAN reliable data transfer and fast routing method is needed. To this end, in this paper, we propose resilient routing protocol and extension of IETF LOAD algorithm, for optimal recovery path, More specifically, the optimal recovery path setup algorithm, signal flow, and detailed protocols for the verification of the reliability of packet transmission mathematical model is presented. The proposed protocol techniques to analyze the performance of the NS-3 performance through the simulation results that is end-to-end delay, throughput, packet delivery fraction and control packet overhead demonstrated excellence in comparison with existing LOAD.

As an Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) Working Group, 6LoWPAN is standardizing the IPv6 packet transfer technology in accordance with IEEE 802.15.4. It has completed two Request for Comments (RFC) documents, one of which, RFC 4944, addresses fragmentation, reassembly, and header compression technologies. In this paper, a communication mechanism is proposed to provide efficient communication between 6LoWPAN and external nodes. In this mechanism, the gateway between 6LoWPAN and external networks serves as the proxy gateway between nodes. The simulation was conducted using QualNet to compare the performance of the proposed mechanism and the existing RFC 4944 method. The comparative analysis of the proposed mechanism and the existing method showed that the proposed method performed better.

The development of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) is progressed slowly due to limited resources, but it is in progress to the development of the latest IP-based IP-WSN by the development of hardware and power management technology. IPv6 over Low power WPAN (6LoWPAN) is capable of IPv6-built low-power devices. In these IP-based WSNs, existing IP-based techniques which was impossible in WSNs becomes possible. 6LoWPAN is based on the IEEE 802.15.4 sensor networks and is a IPv6-supported technology. Host-based mobility management scheme in IP-WSNs are not suitable due to the additional signaling, network-based mobility management scheme is more suitable. In this paper, we propose an enhanced PMIPv6-based route optimization scheme which consider multi-6LoWPAN network environments. All SLMA (Sensor Local Mobility Anchor) of the 6LoWPAN domain are connected with the SPIG (Sensor Proxy Internetworking Gateway) and performs distributed mobility control for the 6LoWPAN-based inter-domain operations. All information of SLMA in 6LoWPAN domain is maintained by SMAG (Sensor Mobile Access Gateway), and then is performed the route optimization quickly. The status information of the route optimization from SPIG is stored to SLMA and it is supported without additional signaling.
