One of the most important applications of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) undoubtedly is the emergency management. In particular, sensor nodes can be helpful for both preventing and recovering emergency situations. During critical emergency situations, having a WSN easy to access and manage is a mandatory requirement. So far, sensor networks have been based on custom protocols that make difficult...
This paper presents an experimental study of TCPHC, a novel algorithm for compressing the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) header to reduce its overhead in IPv6-enabled Low-power and Lossy Networks (6LoWPANs). Results show that TCPHC outperforms TCP both in low-loss and high-loss networks. In fact, TCPHC can reduce the TCP header to 6 bytes in more than 95% of the cases. Moreover, experimental...
