| Abstract |
The need for digital transformation in the industry and the related development of the Internet of Things (IoT) has led to the rapid development of various communication technologies and approaches for the implementation of flexible and intelligent communication networks. The main direction is wireless technologies, which make it possible to accelerate the wide range of new applications and services related to smart cities, industry, e-government and others. The possibilities are wide - use of different licensed or unlicensed frequency bands, channel bandwidths, modulation formats, power efficiency, reliability and security. Different network topologies could be applied for the access and collection of data from the sensor networks - star topology, mesh topology, tree topology, each of which has different advantages and disadvantages. This paper discusses the possibilities for deploying low-power mesh networks in an indoor scenario based on IQRF technology. Important communication parameters, approach advantages, and technological limitations will be highlighted. As an example, a study of network behaviour and efficiency in an indoor scenario will be considered. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd. |
