Abstract

This paper introduces a 6LoWPAN simulation model for OMNeT++. Providing a 6LoWPAN model is an important step to advance OMNeT++-based Internet of Things simulations. We integrated Contiki's 6LoWPAN implementation into OMNeT++ in order to avoid problems of non-standard compliant, non-interoperable, or highly abstracted and thus unreliable simulation models. The paper covers the model's structure as well as its integration and the generic interaction between OMNeT++/INET and Contiki.
