Design of 6LoWPAN Border Router Based on Multiple Open Source Systems

Abstract: Based on the open-source system OpenWrt, an application program socket-support was developed, and 6LBR was ported to OpenWrt. Using the TP-link TL-WR703N chip and the low-power CC1310 chip produced by TI as the core hardware platform, a 6LoWPAN border router was designed based on Contiki, 6LBR, and the OpenWrt system. Two 6LoWPAN sub-nodes were … Read more
