In ternet of Things (IoT) relies on Wireless Technology for its major Functionalities

Abstract: A decade ago the concept of the Internet of Things (IoT) was coined and used to integrate such approaches into a common framework. Technology has been constantly evolving and so has the concept of the Internet of Things, incorporating new terminology appropriate to technological advances and different application domains. This article presents the changes that the IoT has undertaken since its conception and research on how wireless technological advances have shaped it and fostered the arising of derived names suitable to specific domains. In this article, we provide a study of some wireless communication standards, evaluating their main features and behaviours in terms of various metrics, including the transmission time, data coding efficiency, complexity, and power consumption. It is believed that the comparison presented in this paper would benefit application engineers in selecting an appropriate protocol.
