IoT Protocol Stack: A Layered View

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Internet of Things From Hype to Reality

Abstract

The IoT protocol stack can be visualized as an extension of the TCP/IP layered protocol model and is comprised of the following layers: physical layer, link layer, network layer, transport layer, application protocol layer, and application services layer.
