IoT for Next-Generation Networks: A Succinct Review

Abstract

The analysis predicts that over half a trillion Internet of Things (IoT) devices will become connected during the next decade as automotive sectors strive to enhance 90% of their vehicles through IoT capabilities. The connected vehicle market surpassed 250 million units in 2020, with a 67% growth rate. Integrating IoT technology into industrial operations creates new business prospects that let organizations advance their methods and achieve optimized operations. Technological advancements lead to a smarter world where users gain easier resource access and have improved quality of service (QoS) and quality of experience (QoE). The paper presents six essential factors for IoT, including identification protocols and calculation functionalities that create operational boundaries. The IoT leads industrial operations into transformation, while research between engineering and social sciences needs to develop the technology of connected systems.
