Data Transfer Methods for Information-Centric Networking-Based Wireless Sensor Network Platform

Abstract

Many Machine-to-Machine (M2M) services provided by sensor network services have been proposed. In many cases, a sensor network is designed and managed to provide a particular M2M service. For cost reduction and earlier service provisioning, the sensor network platform should realize multiple M2M services for its effectiveness. In this paper, we propose a design for a sensor network platform based on Information-Centric Networking (ICN). Generally, it is important to meet the detailed requests of each service, such as reliable data collection and data collection immediately after data generation. In this paper, we propose data transfer methods in Information-Centric Networking-based Wireless Sensor Network Platform. The proposed data transfer method is evaluated via simulation, and the simulation results show a delay time reduction and data arrival rate improvement.
