  Abstract

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.
