Basic Technologies for IOT

Short Range Wireless

1) BLE — Bluetooth Low Energy:

Low power variant to classic Bluetooth with a comparable communication range.

2) LiFi — Light Fidelity:

Wireless communication similar to wifi, use visible light communication for increased bandwidth.

3) NFC — Near Field Communication

it is a one kind of device or card that has 4cm range.

4) QR Codes and Barcodes

machine readable optical tags that store information about items.

5) RFID — Radio Frequency Identifier

Using electromagnetic field to read data stored in tags enabled in tag embedded in other item.

6) WiFi — Wireless Fidelity

use for LAN, devices may communicate through a shared access point.

7) Z-Wave

communication protocol providing short rang, low latency data transfer at rate and power consumption than WiFi used primarily a shared access point.

8) Zig Bee

communication protocol for personal area networking low power consumption, low data rate, low cost and high throughput
