Cyber-physical systems (CPSs) connect physical equipment and the information system to realize real-time perception and intelligent control of the equipment. With the rapid development of wireless sensors, wireless sensor networks (WSNs) now play a major role in CPS and have become a focus of research. However, WSNs in CPS face great challenges in ensuring the high reliability and time critical performance of data transmission because of the characteristics of the complex structure and dynamic connectivity. In order to meet the performance requirement of CPS data transmission, a Reliability and Timeliness Guaranteed Opportunistic Routing (RTGOR) protocol is proposed that is based on opportunistic routing and combined with quantified transmission reliability and time guarantees. Our simulation results demonstrate that RTGOR performs better than the state-of-the-art protocol QMOR (QoS-assured Opportunistic Routing Mechanism), in terms of the packet delivery rate and end-to-end delay metrics.
Reliability and real-time requirements based on opportunistic routing (RTGOR) REF have also been proposed.
