Power Efficient and Secure IPV6 Robust Header Compression Technique for Low Power Wireless Personal Area Networks

A power efficient & secure ROHC scheme has been presented in this paper. This scheme is designed to work efficiently for IPV6 based low power wireless personal area networks. The proposed scheme first implements ROHC followed by a suitable encryption scheme. ROHC can greatly reduce the size without adding too much complexity to the system. This in result improves the data rate without costing too much power. IPV6 low pans have a number of applications in military and emergency scenarios. Therefore providing high data rate with security is the prime requirement especially for military applications.
