Abstract
Time Slotted Channel Hopping (TSCH) is a medium access protocol defined in
the IEEE 802.15.4 standard which have been proven to be one of the most
reliable options when it comes to industrial applications. TSCH has been
designed to be utilized in static network topologies. Thus, if an application
scenario requires a mobile network topology, TSCH does not perform reliably. In
this paper we introduce active connectivity for mobile application scenarios,
such as mobile robots. This is a feature that enables the option to regulate
physical characteristics such as the speed of a node as it moves, in order to
keep being connected to the TSCH network. We model the active connectivity
approach through a basic example where two nodes are moving towards the same
direction to infer the main principles of the introduced approach. We evaluate
the active connectivity feature through simulations and quantify trade-off
between connectivity and application-layer performance.
