An architecture and reference implementation for WSN-based IoT systems

The Internet of Things and its technologies have evolved quickly in recent years. It became an umbrella term for various technologies, embedded devices, smart objects, and web services. Although it has gained maturity, there is still no clear or common definition of references for creating WSN-based IoT systems. In the awareness that creating an omniscient and ideal architecture that can suit all design requirements is not feasible, modular and scalable architecture that supports adding or subtracting components to fit a lot of requirements of various use cases should be provided as a starting point. This chapter discusses such an architecture and reference implementation. The architecture should cover multiple layers, including the cloud, the gateway, and the edges of the target system, which allows monitoring the environment, managing the data, programming the edge nodes and networking model to establish communication between horizontal and vertical embedded devices. In order to exemplify the proposed architecture and reference implementation, a smart irrigation case study is used.
