| Description | The Internet of Things (IoT) is a distributed ICT (Information and Communication Technology) system that integrates sensors, computing devices, algorithms and physical objects known as the Things which are uniquely $identifiable.^{ 1 }$ The Things have the abilities to collect and transfer data over connected systems without any human intervention, thus offering autonomous data processing abilities. A communication network is one of the key elements of an IoT (Internet of Things) system that allows information flow among a large number of sensors, actuators, devices, controllers and data storages. Many IoT devices require mostly one way data transfer ability, whereas some applications operating in sensor actuator modes require bi-directional data transfer. IoT systems could be deployed to support numerous applications; ranging from simple home automation tasks to life saving tasks where implanted sensors within a human body could be used to monitor critical human organs. All IoT systems rely heavily on efficient and reliable communication networks to exchange data among its component entities. The efficiency and reliability requirements 2of communication networks are determined by the application profiles. IoT systems enable the collection of massive amounts of data, generating a Big Data $repository.^{ 2 }$ The growth of IoT systems have been fueled by the availability of low cost and low power computing, sensors and communication devices as well as the development of intelligent software techniques which enables implementation of complex algorithms in a cost effective manner. The IoT system is seen as a natural growth of machine to machine (M2M) communication systems into a full autonomous system. This chapter briefly introduces various IoT application domains and standards, as well as introduces a generic IoT system architecture. Book Name: Internet of Things (IoT) |
