Low-Rate Wireless Sensor Networks (LR-WSNs) has become an active area of research in recent decades. ZigBee is a wireless standard based on IEEE 802.15.4 for LR-WSNs. Since in Zigbee networks energy is one of the most vital issues, the routing protocols must be energy efficient. By default, ZigBee uses an Ad hoc On-Demand Distance Vector (AODV) routing protocol. In AODV, broadcasting is the backbone...

As Internet of Things (IoT) and smart devices are becoming widespread, expectations for large-scale ad-hoc networks are increasing. To accommodate a large number of nodes, ad-hoc networks should use multiple channels. Thus, dynamic channel switching methods in multi-channel ad-hoc networks have been investigated to control congestion of the channel. However, such channel switching has a considerable...
