IoT concept and SDN fusion in consumer products: Overview

In this paper we study the design of Internet of Things (IoT) concept and its newly formed communication standards - Matter protocol and Thread technology. The goal of this paper is to distinguish conceptional traits of what IoT framework is and how Software defined network (SDN) functionality assists in modern IoT deployments. This paper is mainly an overview of previous studies and standards thus it concludes with considerations for necessary future research. We discovered that IoT concept bases on a vague design that lacks barriers and allows interpretations of design principles. Therefore, a common IoT framework has not yet been found.
