A Novel IoT Architecture based on 5G-IoT and Next Generation Technologies

The Internet of Things (IoT) is a crucial component of Industry 4.0. Due to the growing demands of customers, the current IoT architecture will not be reliable and responsive for next generation IoT applications and upcoming services. In this paper, a next generation IoT architecture based on new technologies is proposed in which the requirements of future applications, services, and generated data are addressed. Particularly, this architecture benefits from new technologies such as device-to-device (D2D) communication, 5G-IoT, Machine-Type Communication (MTC), Wireless Network Function virtualization (WNFV), Wireless Software Defined Networks (WSDN), Mobile Edge Computing (MEC), and Mobile Cloud Computing (MCC). This combination of technologies is able to satisfy the requirements of new applications. The proposed novel architecture is modular, efficient, agile, scalable, simple, and it is able to satisfy the high amount of data and application demands.
