This library is a fork of Contiki that contains an implementation of a RPL routing metric aimed at the minimization of the average delay towards the DAG root, assuming that nodes run with very low duty cycles (e.g., under 1%) at the MAC layer. We refer to the new RPL metric as Averaged Delay (AVG_DEL) metric. RPL is the IETF standard for IPv6 routing in low-power WSNs.
Moreover, we enhance ContikiMAC to support different sleeping periods of the nodes.
Change git branch to visualize the code. The core implementation of the metric is in core/net/rpl/rpl-of-etx.c
