An Architecture for IPv6 over the Time-Slotted Channel Hopping Mode of IEEE 802.15.4
Overview
RFC 9030, “An Architecture for IPv6 over the Time-Slotted Channel Hopping Mode of IEEE 802.15.4”, is an Informational document published in May 2021 by P. Thubert. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
This document describes a network architecture that provides low-latency, low-jitter, and high-reliability packet delivery. It combines a high-speed powered backbone and subnetworks using IEEE 802.15.4 time-slotted channel hopping (TSCH) to meet the requirements of low-power wireless deterministic applications.
What “Informational” means
Published for the general information of the community. It does not define an IETF standard and carries no standards-track status.
