Analysis of Modern Communication Protocols for IoT applications

Abstract

To facilitate increasing interactions of machines, various protocols are building up for IoT applications.Safeguarding communication among devices is necessary. In this paper, various protocols have beenstudied and compared using six parameters: Communication overhead, Security, Packet Loss,Throughput, Bandwidth and Support to QoS. LIDOR is found as the most successful communicationprotocol. A tabulated comparison of various communication protocols have been provided by comparingthe parameters. Further, six star rating for the various protocols have been proposed. The study showsthat LIDOR increases reliability under DoS attacks. Considering the existing literature, new research gapsand challenges have been presented.
