Abstract
To solve scalability problem in the ZigBee Network, this paper presents a new mesh routing protocol for ZigBee, called ZigBee Cluster Label (ZiCL). ZiCL divides the ZigBee network into one or more logical clusters and then assigns a unique Cluster Label to each cluster so that it discovers a route of a destination node based on Cluster Label. When a node collects new Cluster Label information of a destination node according to discovery based on Cluster Label, ZiCL encourages nodes with the same Cluster Label to share the information. Consequen tly, it contributes on reducing numerical potential route discoveries and improving network performances such as routing overhead, end-to-end delay, and packet delivery ratio. Simulation results using NS-2 show ZiCL performs well.
