IPv6-enabled low-power wireless personal area network (6LoWPAN) is an important part of the Internet of Things which will drastically transform the way our society functions. Designing an efficient routing strategy is crucial for optimizing traffic over 6LoWPAN resources and extending the network lifetime. This paper proposes an energy balancing adaptive routing strategy named EBAR. Considering the dynamic traffic and constrained energy in 6LoWPAN, EBAR adaptively updates paths between different source-destination pairs and balances the energy in 6LoWPAN. Simulation results indicate that EBAR can promote network performance and balance the energy in the network.
