Abstract
The article discusses the main technologies and standards for wireless data transmission, provides an overview and comparative analysis of short-range wireless technologies («last 100 meters» technology), and also discloses some technical characteristics. The advantages and disadvantages are shown. For the analysis of near-radius technologies, a method for comparing parameters was chosen based on information from domestic and foreign literature, scientific articles and publications. The analysis contributes to the selection of the most optimal wireless data transmission standard for organizing an efficient near-range network aimed at solving the main problem of Internet of Things devices — ensuring the secure connection of a large number of devices with limited power deployed over a wide area and meeting the performance criteria of the Internet of Things.
Currently, short-range wireless communication is based mainly on Bluetooth, UWB, ZigBee and Wi-Fi standards, which are based on IEEE 802.15.1, 802.15.3, 802.15.4 and 802.11a/b/g/ah standards, respectively. The specified IEEE standards define physical (PHY) and MAC levels for wireless communication in a range of about 10-100 meters.
Based on the review, it can be concluded that 802.11ah is the most promising next-generation Wi-Fi technology for large-scale applications of the Internet of Things with low power consumption, which combines support for high data transfer rates over long distances, low power consumption, low latency, and thanks to built-in mechanisms such as RAW, TWT and TIM, significantly reduces collisions when accessing the channel, and also provides the required QoS.
It is also important to note that wireless technologies are changing rapidly following the needs of the Internet of Things market and it is recommended to monitor updates to existing standards and technologies, as well as the emergence of new short-range technologies.
The requirements for power consumption of devices, data transmission security, high network fault tolerance, the ability of devices to withstand radio interference and ease of connection remain unchanged.
