Abstract

The sensor nodes are low-cost electronic device able to self- organizing in low-power networks and susceptible to loss data packets, having computational and energy limitations. For these networks, the IETF standardized the Routing Protocol for Low Power and Lossy Networks (RPL), in which each secondary nodes select a better parent according to some objective functions (OFs). In this work, we propose the evaluation of the energy consumption of the RPL routing protocol in scenarios on lossy networks. We did simulations in the Contiki Cooja 3.0 considering the ETX and HOP metrics to evaluate three distinct topologies: tree, circular and mesh. Our results of the simulations show that the circular topology has the best (lowest) energy consumption, with 15% better than the mesh topology and 30% against the tree topology.
