ENABLING TECHNOLOGIES FOR
IOT
Some of the enabling technologies for iot are …
1. RFID and near field communication2. Optical tags and quick response codes3. Bluetooth low energy 4. ZIGBEE5. Z-WAVE6. LTE ADVANCED7. WIFI-DIRECT
1.RFID and near field communication
• RFID stands for Radio-Frequency Identification. This technology used in small electronic devices that consist of a small chip and an antenna. The chip typically is capable of carrying 2,000 bytes of data or less.
• The RFID device works like the same purpose as a bar code or a magnetic strip on the back of a credit card or ATM card. It provides a unique identifier for that object. And, just as a bar code or magnetic strip must be scanned to get the information, the RFID device must be scanned to retrieve the identifying information.
Some Examples :
1. Credit Card – Visa is combining smart cards and RFID chips so people can conduct transactions without having to use cash or coins.
2. Airlines – In Airlines RFID Technology used to track passenger bags, Delta Airlines in america is tagging customer bags with RFID technology to reduce the number of lost bags and make it easier to route bags if customers change their flight plans.
3. Manufacturing – A major tire manufacturer is going to insert RFID tags into its tires. The tags will store a unique number for each tire, which will be associated with the car’s vehicle identification number.
4. Corporate & Municipal – Australia placed RFID tags in employee uniforms to aid to avoid theft. The same idea would work well in a corporate environment to help control desktop computers, networking equipment, and personal digital assistants or handheld computers.
2. Optical tags and quick response codes
• This is used for low cost tagging. Phone cameras decode QR code using image-processing techniques. In reality QR advertisement campaigns gives less turnout as users need to have another application to read QR codes.
3.Bluetooth low energy
• This is one of the latest tech. All newly releasing smartphones have BLE hardware in them. Tags based on BLE can signal their presence at a power budget that enables them to operate for up to one year on a lithium coin cell battery.
4.ZIGBEE
• This communication technology is based on the IEEE 802.15.4 protocol to implement physical and MAC layer for low-rate wireless Private Area Networks. Some of its main characteristics like low power consumption, low data rate, low cost, and high message throughput make it an interesting IoT enabler technology.
ZigBee Example 1: Kwikset SmartCode
ZigBee Example 2: Philips 431643 Hue Personal Wireless Lighting, Starter Pack
ZigBee Example 3: ADT Monitored Home Security Alarm Systems
Zigbee example 4: Navigation System using ZigBee Wireless Sensor Network for Parking
5.Z-WAVE
• It is a communication protocol that is mostly used in smart home applications.
6.LTE ADVANCED
• LTE-A is a high-speed communication specification for mobile networks. Compared to its original LTE, LTE-A has been improved to have extended coverage, higher throughput and lower latency. One important application of this technology is Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) communications.
7.WIFI-DIRECT
• It is essentially WiFi for peer-to-peer communication without needing to have an access point. This feature attracts IoT applications to be built on top of WiFi-Direct to get benefit from the speed of WiFi while they experience lower latency
WIFI-DIRECT IN ANDROID
• Wi-Fi peer-to-peer (P2P) allows Android 4.0 (API level 14) or later devices with the appropriate hardware to connect directly to each other via Wi-Fi without an intermediate access point
• Using these APIs, we can discover and connect to other devices when each device supports Wi-Fi P2P, then communicate over a speedy connection across distances much longer than a Bluetooth connection.
• This is useful for applications that share data among users, such as a multiplayer game or a photo sharing application.
