Lightweight Protocol for M2M Communication

Abstract

Increasing popularity of Internet of Things and Smart home system raises new requirements for micro-controllers. There is a need for affordable solutions with low power consumption and reasonably fast communication transmission rate. This article deals with the communication protocols and introduces own protocol designed for machine to machine communication. Different ways of data transfer between various hardware layers are shown and compared. Every approach is discussed with its benefits and downfalls. Benchmark of three selected types of communication using proposed protocol is performed and results are shown.
