![]() |
ABSTRACT There is rapid growth in the number of Internet of Things (IoT) devices both now and in the future; these devices require protocols to connect to a central server. Many protocols have been implemented to facilitate this connection. This paper provides a review of commonly used protocols in the field of IoT for communication devices in smart cities. Through this study, it is found that the Message Queuing Telemetry Transport (MQTT) protocol has many features over the rest protocols, To its simplicity and lightweight, it also supports a wide range of internet of things IoT applications, and it provides the security of Transport Layer Security/Secure Sockets Layer (TLS/SSL) shown in Table 1. |
KEYWORDS Internet of Things, sensor networks, MQTT protocol, communication layers, Smart cities, IoT devices |
