Dear 6lo WG members, I have uploaded a new revision of the IPv6 over OWC Internet-Draft (draft-ietf-6lo-owc-07).
This revision mainly includes editorial improvements and clarifications based on previous discussions. The main updates include: - Refined the Internet connectivity scenarios (Section 5). - Improved Figures 7 and 8 to better illustrate OWC characteristics). No major technical changes have been introduced in this revision. Your review and comments would be greatly appreciated. If you identify any remaining issues or have suggestions for improvement, please let us know. Thank you for your continued support.

It is a work item of the IPv6 over Networks of Resource-constrained Nodes (6LO) WG of the IETF. Title: Transmission of IPv6 Packets over Short-Range Optical Wireless Communications Authors: Younghwan Choi Cheol-min Kim Carles Gomez Name: draft-ietf-6lo-owc-07.txt Pages: 21 Dates: 2026-07-02 Abstract: [IEEE802.15.7], "Short-Range Optical Wireless Communications" defines wireless communication using visible light. It defines how data is transmitted, modulated, and organized in order to enable reliable and efficient communication in various environments. The standard is designed to work alongside other wireless communication systems and supports both Line-of-Sight (LOS) and Non-Line-of-Sight (NLOS) communications. However, ambient light interference from natural sunlight or artificial lighting sources can impact signal reliability. To mitigate this, advanced modulation techniques, optical filtering, and adaptive power control can be employed. This document describes how IPv6 is transmitted over short-range optical wireless communications (OWC) using IPv6 over Low-Power Wireless Personal Area Network (6LoWPAN) techniques.
