Proposed change of communication architecture with TCP/IP client-server architecture to protocols adapted for the Internet of Things communication through the LabVIEW environment

The machine condition monitoring and diagnostic system is using a TCP/IP client-server architecture. In order to improve the system, the existing communication architecture will be replaced by direct, autonomous, faster and safer communication between the processing unit and cloud-based server applications. To make this possible, new protocols developed within the Internet of Things (IoT) will be used. This paper presents a selection of IoT protocols that suit the requirements of the system, and tests for connection of CompactRIO processing unit to cloud platforms through the LabVIEW development environment.
