Abstract :
IPv6 over IEEE802.15.4 (a.k.a. 6LowPAN), has become the standard for low-rate wireless personal area networks (LR-WPAN). IPv6 is taken as an interconnection scheme for IEEE802.15.4 equipments at network layer, 6LowPAN technology has attracted extensive attention. This paper introduced IEEE802.15.4 standard and 6LowPAN technology, discussed 6LowPAN´s advantages, analyzed its key technologies, and the applications of 6LowPAN were explored.
