  According to enormous growths in communication networks, multimedia data will play a significant role on the Internet of Things in the near future. High volume of multimedia data leads to challenges such as reducing network lifetime and congestion. In this paper, a new objective function for the RPL routing protocol is proposed which addresses the characteristics of multimedia data in the routing process. In the objective function, node’s remaining energy and the remaining buffer capacity of nodes measures are combined using a weighted pair. In order to evaluate this method, input data is generated based on a video trace. Packet delivery ratio, network lifetime, nodes availability over the lifetime of the network, node energy distribution, and end-to-end delay are used to evaluate the proposed method. The evaluation results show that the proposed method increases the package delivery ratio compared to the standard RPL. This method also improves the lifetime of the nodes by distributing energy between the nodes in comparison with standard RPL and extends the node's availability over the lifetime of the network. Finally, it reduces the network congestion which led to a lower end-to-end delay. Manuscript profile
