The most profound technologies are those that disappear... they weave themselves into the fabric of everyday life un>l they are indis>nguishable from it (Weiser, 1991)
IoT – Vision Vision By 2017 the Finnish ICT industry is a recognized leader in the IoT domain due to its experJse in standards, soXware, devices, and business models integraJng various verJcal industry segments

Technology challenge example: BaQery life>mes
• Universal deployment requires wireless technology • Most devices will rely on ba]eries as power sources • Longer ba]ery lifeJmes needed (months, years, decades) • SoluJon: Let the nodes sleep and save ba]ery when idle!
Why sleeping is difficult? • CommunicaJon models rely on instant responses – E.g. Request – response, web servers
• Links are kept up in case a message arrives • Network rejoining is expensive (ConnecJon setup signaling in wireless, DHCP..) • AddiJonal protocol exchanges require staying on for another RTT • Wireless communicaJons and tail energy – Switching to sleep mode has a high cost – MoJvates delay tolerant and bursty operaJon
Some solu>ons For sleeping • Changing the communicaJon model – Proxies, caches, DTN, store-‐and-‐forward, publish/subscribe – Cross-‐layer interacJons – Node accessibility – Be]er synchronizaJon
• Improvements in L2 to avoid staying on unless required by the applicaJon – E.g., cellular networks are typically service agnosJc; sleep possible in very small Jme scale; LTE DRX works on subframe (1ms) level – Fast dormancy in Release 8 – CommunicaJon models not taken into account
Example: Tiny COAP sensors • Build a sleeping IPv6 based temperature sensor – Natural support for sleeping nodes – CommunicaJon models that fit the problem at hand
• Is it possible? – Jari Arkko et al. at Ericsson have a demonstrator
• Highlights from the implementaJon: – – – – – –
Consists of 48 lines of assembler code HW capability to send/receive link layer frames Ethernet, IPv6, UDP, COAP, XML, and app MulJcast, checksums, msg and device IDs Approaches theoreJcal minimum power usage No configuraJon needed
• IPv6 auto-‐configuraJon • CoAP POST to interest-‐based IP mulJcast address
draft-arkko-core-sleepy-sensors
Sleeping cellular nodes? • Can we replace Ethernet with, e.g., LTE in the previous example? • Power consumpJon in Rel-‐8 LTE (currently being deployed) – Ba]ery life-‐Jme cals) in WP6 •
The raJonale of WP6 is to link IoT technology research and development to innovaJon and business.
