Holistic approach to the Internet of Things (IoT), including case studies from a variety of industries Internet of Things addresses core aspects of The Internet of Things (IoT) using a holistic approach, covering case studies in healthcare, telecommunications, transportation, and entertainment. These are integrated into discussions on current deployments, planned activities, and future possibilities in major sectors of the economy, while also touching upon social, legal, and economic issues that IoT may face in the near and distant future. The text presents solutions for smart cities, the concept of the âEURœconnected home,âEUR? and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), and covers major initiatives where IoT deployments are needed to solve large scale societal and business problems. Specific topics covered in Internet of Things include: Historical foundations for IoT, delving into ideas, experiments, advances, and past investments that make IoT possibleInfluences that previous technological changes have had on IoT, including where and how IoT may have comparable or greater impactsBasic ingredients for IoT, including physical, software, and infrastructure components, and their desired set of functions, common services, expected performance characteristics, and solutionsTools, processes, and organizational aspects of IoT, and middleware and platforms that are important for standards activitiesA practical and accessible text covering the history, state of the art, and future outlook for IoT, Internet of Things is an essential resource for technology practitioners, policy makers, and academics interested in understanding IoT, along with graduate students seeking to enter fields where IoT is prevalent.

Evolution of Wireless Communication EcosystemsUnderstand a world transformed by wireless communication with this groundbreaking guideSince the advent of the internet, few technologies have proven more transformative than wireless communication. Never have we lived in a more comprehensively connected world, with the cloud and the coming sixth generation (6G) of wireless technology creating a vast and interconnected communications infrastructure. Global citizens of this newly interconnected reality are grappling like never before with its many challenges.Evolution of Wireless Communication Ecosystems provides readers with a history of wireless communication and a thorough overview of emerging frontiers. It traces wireless communication from the first generation through to the current fifth before surveying the current state of wireless technology and the ongoing research into 6G. The result is a book that understands wireless communication for the first time as an ecosystem, endlessly interconnected, growing, and boundlessly complex, but made intelligible by this highly readable introduction.Readers will also find:* Detailed explanations of the journey starting from 1G to 6G* Descriptions the infrastructure of 4G, 5G, and 6G systems, this all-connected communication ecosystem, the sub-components of this ecosystem, and the relationship among them* Depictions of events seen in the capillaries of the communication echo system that show switching techniques, modulation, and multiplexing techniques* Coverage of access techniques, protocols, the methods used in M2M and IoT connections at the endpoints, and security issues that show how they are an integral part of wireless communication infrastructureEvolution of Wireless Communication Ecosystems from 1G to 6G is an essential reference for wireless and telecommunications professionals, as well as researchers interested in 6G or other emerging wireless technologies.
