Internet of things (IoT)
Abstract- Internet of thing is an advanced
technology that provides communication
system between peripheral device and
users. It is a kind of network system that
interconnects physical devices, home
appliances and embedded with software
and sensors. The main purpose of this
research is to describe the fundamental
concept of internet of thing and discuss
the wireless protocols and technologies
used in the Internet of thing. In this the
internet protocols are connected with the
other computer devices with the help of
internet. The IoT is completed based on
the wireless technology that provide a
platform to communicate with the
network devices and in which the
transmitter and receiver are connected
with the help of internet connectivity.
This report is explaining the working
principle of IoT technology and different
kinds of wireless network protocol used
in this technique. The wireless network is
modern process of the wired system that
does not require any connecting cables
due to which the speed of data transfer is
very high. The Internet of Things refer to
the consistently developing system of
physical items that element an IP address
for web availability, and the
correspondence that happens between
these articles and other Internet-
empowered gadgets and frameworks.
There are many types of wireless
communication protocols and technologies
used in the field of internet of thing such as
Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, Z-wave, Zigbee, LoraWAN,
and LTE. All these will be described in this
report with their advantages and
disadvantages. It is observed that the main
problem faced by these networks protocol is
that lack of security and due to which the
users can lose their personal data or
information. These type of issue can be
resolved if the users adopt the security plans
like firewall, antivirus, encryption and
cryptography techniques. The main
advantage of wireless network is that they
are more efficient and fast in speed which
can be used for the long distance
communication system. There are many
researchers investigated on this topic and
they indentified that most of organizations
and consumers use wireless technology for
the communication purpose but they do not
follow any security programs to avoid the
cyber treats and risks. To interconnect the
two or more computer networks a
communication protocol is used which is
provided by the wireless system and
internet of thing use this technique because
it has capability to enhance the efficiency of
communication channel. With the help of
this report the reader can increase their
knowledge in the field of internet of thing
and they can compare different kinds of
wireless protocols with each other. It is
recommended that the problem of security
