Abstract

Low-power and Lossy Networks (LLN) constitute an interconnected network of numerous resource-constrained nodes, forming a wireless mesh network. The Time slotted Channel Hopping (TSCH) mode, introduced as a revision of the Medium Access Control (MAC) section within the IEEE 802.15.4 standard, stands as an emerging standard for industrial automation and process control. In 2013, the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) established the IPv6 over the TSCH mode of IEEE 802.15.4e (6TiSCH) working group (WG), defining the IPv6 deterministic wireless network—6TiSCH. This development is pivotal for advancing the broader adoption of IPv6 in industrial standards and facilitating the convergence of operational technology (OT) and information technology (IT). As of July 2023, the primary documents encompassing architecture, configuration and parameters, and Minimum Scheduling Function for the 6TiSCH protocol stack have been completed, and the status of the WG has transitioned from active to concluded. Over the past decade, the academic community has extensively researched protocol stacks related to 6TiSCH. This paper furnishes a comprehensive survey of the architecture and developmental processes underlying the 6TiSCH network, encapsulating research achievements since its inception, and delineating the challenges and prospective directions for its future development.

6TiSCH IIoT 网络：综述

低功耗、低损耗网络（LLN）是由众多资源受限节点组成的互联网络，构成了一个无线网状网络。时隙信道跳频（TSCH）模式作为 IEEE 802.15.4 标准中介质访问控制（MAC）部分的修订版而推出，是工业自动化和过程控制领域的新兴标准。2013 年，互联网工程任务组（IETF）成立了 IPv6 over the TSCH mode of IEEE 802.15.4e (6TiSCH) 工作组（WG），定义了 IPv6 确定性无线网络--6TiSCH。这一发展对于推动 IPv6 在工业标准中的广泛应用以及促进运营技术 (OT) 和信息技术 (IT) 的融合至关重要。截至 2023 年 7 月，包括 6TiSCH 协议栈的体系结构、配置和参数以及最小调度功能在内的主要文件已经完成，工作组的状态已从活跃转为结束。在过去十年中，学术界广泛研究了与 6TiSCH 相关的协议栈。本文全面介绍了 6TiSCH 网络的架构和开发过程，概括了自其诞生以来的研究成果，并描述了其未来发展所面临的挑战和前景。
