Evaluating existing wireless technologies for IoT data transferring

Wireless communications play a significant role in the spread of the Internet Of Things (loT). While all machines try to connect to the IoT and exchange data, wireless communications offer freedom of movement and demand of minimum infrastructure. The main obstacles that wireless communications face are the limited source of power and the short range of coverage. This paper highlights all the available wireless technologies, and points out all the pros and cons of each technology. Experiments on each technology are carried out regarding coverage, throughput power consumption and energy expenditure expressed as packet loss.
