Internet of things: Sensor to sensor communication

Rapidly growing Internet of Things (IoTs) concept have given rise to the concern regarding inter-communicability of sensor nodes practicing a multitude of standard and proprietary wireless communication protocols. A multi wireless communication protocol transceiver can facilitate sensor node to sensor node communication for a better quality of service and decision making in the IoTs environment. In this project, a multi wireless communication protocol receiver is designed and tested in a smart building monitoring system that collects and analyzes ambient data. The key objective of this project is to bridge the communication gap between sensor nodes especially in terms of wireless communication protocol. In overall, this project has successfully demonstrated a smart receiver concept that allows multi-channel communication between the sensor nodes with Zigbee, Bluetooth and WiFi communication protocols.
