Abstract

The Constrained Application Protocol (CoAP) is designed for resource- constrained nodes and networks, e.g., sensor nodes in a low-power lossy network (LLN). Yet to implement this Internet protocol on Class 1 devices (i.e., ~ 10 KiB of RAM and ~ 100 KiB of ROM) also lightweight implementation techniques are necessary. This document provides lessons learned from implementing CoAP for tiny, battery- operated networked embedded systems. The guidelines for transmission state management and developer APIs can also help with the implementation of CoAP for less constrained nodes.
