Abstract
In this chapter, we consider IP-based mobile wireless sensor networks as one of the most important infrastructure for IoT. We first explain the feature and challenges for this context. In IP-based mobile wireless sensor networks, maintaining the connectivity of mobile node to the network is the real challenge. This is an important issue mostly for time-critical applications like health care. The other important factor is reducing hand-off cost during inter-PAN and intra-PAN movement. This results in reducing power consumption of mobile nodes which is the other important issue in this context.
