Abstract

Low power communication is becoming an increasingly critical factor in the design and implementation of large-scale Internet of Things (IoT) and Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN). Recently, new protocols have been introduced to help reduce such system's power can cost. This paper presents a survey of recent research on low power consumption networking for IoT and WSN systems, highlighting the move from battery life of hours or days to months and years Then the paper flags some Cyber Security vulnerabilities of specific IoT interest as well as identifying key areas for further work.
