Study Notes
Introduction to IoT Using Case Studies
- An Internet of Things (IoT) system is an interconnected network of "things" (devices).
- Things can sense surrounding data, process it, act based on the processed data, and communicate with other things.
- Communication between things is done using various methods like Wi-Fi, LoRaWAN, and Cellular.
IoT Network Architectures
- Peer-to-Peer Network: Devices communicate directly with each other.
- Star Network: Devices are connected to a central hub.
- Hierarchical Network (Cloud-Fog-Edge): Combines processing and storage levels.
- Cloud: Centralized analytics and storage.
- Fog: Local processing close to devices.
- Edge: Real-time processing directly on devices.
Case Studies
-
Ride-Hailing Services (Uber/Ola): Connect drivers and passengers efficiently.
- Sensors: GPS, accelerometer.
- Communication: Cellular (4G/5G.)
- Processing (e.g.): Pricing, route optimization, driver-passenger matching, basic navigation.
- Considerations: Minimal delay, data privacy, scalability.
-
Smart Road Traffic Monitoring (Including Air Pollution): Monitors traffic and air quality.
- Sensors: Traffic cameras, air quality sensors (e.g., PM2.5, NOx).
- Communication: LoRaWAN, cellular/Wi-Fi.
- Processing (e.g.): Object detection/filtering, traffic analysis, pollution mapping.
- Considerations: Bandwidth, data integration, power efficiency.
-
Smart Water Meters: Automatically monitor water usage.
- Sensors: Flow sensors.
