Internet of things: issues in using mobile communication network
R. Srinivasan, Thamodharan Arumugam · 2016
Internet of Things (IoT) is an emerging technology that effectively collects data from billions of connected things using sensors and devices, derives intelligence, builds context and helps transform the way businesses are run, as well as our society. IoT enables new use cases due to real time information from things. IoT uses various Communication Networks to send information from sensors and devices to the server in the cloud for analysis. One of the popular networks is mobile communication network. Mobile communication is ideal for connecting things on the move and things outside premises. For example, it is used heavily in transport and logistics industries for real time location of vehicles on the move using GPS technology. This paper discusses various issues that arise in using mobile communication networks for IoT device-server connectivity and suggests possible solutions as well.
