Realizing the Wireless Technology in Internet of Things (IoT)

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Emerging Wireless Communication and Network Technologies

Abstract

The evolution of the Internet of Things (IoT) has been highly based on the advances on wireless communications and sensing capabilities of smart devices, along with a, still increasing, number of applications that are being developed which manage to cover various small and more important aspects of every people’s life. This chapter aims at presenting the wireless technologies and protocols that are used for the IoT communications, along with the main architectures and middleware that have been proposed to serve and enhance the IoT capabilities and increase its efficiency. Finally, since the generated data that are spread in an IoT ecosystem might include sensitive information (e.g., personal medical data by sensors), we will also discuss the security and privacy hazards that are introduced from the advances in the development and application of an IoT environment.
