Abstract:
Connecting LP-WANs(Low-Power Wide Area Networks) to the Internet is
expected to provide significant benefits to these networks in terms
of interoperability, application deployment, and management,among
others. However, the specific characteristics of LP-WANs, such as
very limited data unit size, and large-scale data sets make the
network operation more complex: using one IP packet to send one LP-
WAN data unit is a waste of bandwidth(because the packet header is
much bigger than payload), and the large-scale LP-WAN data sets can
also increase the Internet burden. This specification defines a Data
Aggregation Unit(DAU) for LP-WANs to aggregate small-size date units
into bigger data chains so they can be sent through the Internet more
efficiently.
