Smart Objects in the “Internet of Things”

The Common Infrastructure


The PAST of Smart Object Networks  Closed architecture and proprietary protocols are used

Zigbee, Z-Wave, Xmesh, SmartMesh, MeshScape, … Different Protocols, Different Architectures

 Results in inefficient and fragmented networks

GW GW GW GW

GW GW

GW GW

  Interoperability partially addressed by protocol gateways Inherently complex to design, difficult to converge Expensive and difficult to manage (CAPEX and OPEX) Inconsistent routing, lack of end-to-end QoS Deployments were limited in scale and flexibility

GW GW GW GW GW


Using IP Allows consistent architecture  Based on open standards

Move away from proprietary and closed protocols

  Flexibility in many dimensions Support a wide range of

Applications -- voice, video, data, message

Media – Serial, SONET, Ethernet, DWDM, FR, ATM Devices -- From sensors to routers

 Plug & Play, Interoperability and Scalability The Internet comprises billions of connected devices

IP


Characteristics of “Smart Object” in the IoT  Constraints of the devices

Power consumption Physical size CPU power (8 or 16-bit, lower clock) RAM (~100 KB) Bandwidth (~ 127kbps a frame)

 Constraints of the networks Low-speed highly unstable loosy links

oscillation avoidance

Potentially very large scale (10-100sK nodes) Sleeping devices Unattended devices in harsh environments

heat, dust, moisture, interference

Low power and Resource Consideration

Comprehensive & Simple Application Protocol

Resilient Routing Protocol

Adaptation Layer for new media

Challenge Areas

Trend of the IETF Standardization


What is IETF ?  SDO of the Internet protocols

 An open standards organization

 Any discussion, mail and slides are open

 No formal membership or membership requirements

 All participants and managers are volunteers

  Involving people not companies

 Motto: “We reject kings, presidents and voting. We believe in rough consensus and running code”, Dave Clark (1992)

  8 Areas, currently 124 WGs

  Internet Protocols for the Smart Grid Described a set of the protocols in the Internet for the the Smart Grid

Explanation of the basic element of the TCP/IP technology Consideration of the addressing

Consideration of the mix use of IPv6 and IPv4 Routing (OSPF,ISS,BGP,DYMO,OLSR,RPL) Transport protocol (TCP,UDP,SCTP,DCCP) Infrastructure requirement (DNS, DHCP) Security consideration

IPSO  Alliance established in September, 2008

over 50 organizations (Oct 2010)

 Mission  Promote the use of IP in Smart Objects  Generate tutorials, white papers and highlight use cases  Support IETF and other standards development organizations  Support and organize interoperability events

http://ipso-alliance.org/resource-library

•  Formal Liaison •  IPv6 Forum

•  Zigbee Alliance

•  On-Going Activities •  Interoperability testing •  Tutorials, Webinars •  IPv6 ready certification for

Smart Objects


Conclusion  Smart Objects are everywhere, and become connected into

the networks.

 Proprietary and closed architecture approach is not scalable, flexible nor interoperable.

  The Internet is able to be a common infrastructure.

 Applying the ICT enables scalability, flexibility, and interoperability.

  The technologies for the networks are standardized soon.

  IPSO will help you to make your system conformed with IP.
