The What s Next IoT Architecture for Large-Scale Deployment

Large-scale IoT deployment calls for inexpensive, low-power sensor nodes that still perform long-range, large-scale networking at the system level. In this paper, we propose a novel processor-sharing IoT architecture that converts the vast majority of sensor nodes from embedded computers to low-end RF peripherals. The conventional full-fledged sensor nodes are smashed into the air, and the scattered chips are scaled well with negligible overheads through a virtual I2C bus called RFBus.

Abstract

Large-scale IoT deployment calls for inexpensive, low-power sensor nodes that still perform long-range, large-scale networking at the system level. In this paper, we propose a novel processor-sharing IoT architecture that converts the vast majority of sensor nodes from embedded computers to low-end RF peripherals. The conventional full-fledged sensor nodes are smashed into the air, and the scattered chips are scaled well with negligible overheads through a virtual I2C bus called RFBus.
