The use of unmanned aerial vehicles or drones are a valuable technique in coping with issues related to life in the general public’s daily routines. Given the growing number of drones in low-altitude airspace, linking drones to form the Internet of drones (IoD) is a highly desirable trend to improve the safety as well as the quality of flight. However, there remain security, privacy, and communication issues related to IoD. In this paper, we discuss the key requirements of security, privacy, and communication and we present a taxonomy of IoD based on the most relevant considerations. Furthermore, we present the most commonly used commercial case studies and address the latest advancements and solutions proposed for the IoD environments. Lastly, we discuss the challenges and future research directions of IoD.

“…These devices can be massively distributed in hospitals and other large-scale internal environments, forming wireless sensor networks (WSNs) [10]. There are also wearable devices deployed on the human body forming the Wireless Body Area Networks (WBANs) [12]. Most sensor nodes use wireless communication to complete the perception of the surrounding environments by collaborative communication [13], [14], so an effective communication protocol is of great significance to the promotion of the smart healthcare [15]- [17].…”

Massive tremendous amount of miniaturized wireless Internet of Things (IoT) devices are widely employed in many fields such as industrial production, social life, public (and defense) security and management of human society. The limitation of node device's energy capacity is the bottleneck issue of these network systems. MAC protocol is a key communication protocol for such sensor nodes which both rationally saves energy (an alternative to energy harvesting way) and improves the performances of the wireless sensor networks. There are complex tradeoff optimization relationships between the size of contention window and energy consumption, delay and collision, in which too large or too small contention window value cannot make the network performance optimal. This paper firstly gives an optimization algorithm for the size of the contention window through theoretical analysis, which can achieve a compromise between energy consumption (i.e. alternative energy harvesting) and delay. Then, a global view based adaptive contention window (GV-ACW) MAC protocol is proposed to further reduce latency and improve alternative energy harvesting. The GV-ACW MAC protocol adopts the optimized size of contention window in the near sink area to meet the functional requirements of data forwarding, while in the far sink area, the size of contention window is larger than it required by node for data transmission so as to reduce the latency and thereby improve the network performance as a whole. The theoretical analysis and experimental results show that, comparing with previous MAC protocol, GV-ACW protocol can realize effective alternative energy harvesting which resulting increasement of the network lifetime by 6% and reduce the network delay by 15%.INDEX TERMS Wireless sensor networks, alternative energy harvesting, size of contention window, delay, lifetime, Internet of Things.

“…Wireless body area networks which it is abbreviated as WBAN can be practically utilized for delivering information related to the human body for a master node or central computer [24,25], in which it has the ability for being observed, saved as well as examined theoretically. Reliability is a major issue of the WBAN, for this reason, cooperative communication is considered to provide reliable and efficient delivery of the information [26,27].

Analyzing bit error rate of relay sensors selection in wireless cooperative communication systems

et al. 2021

Cooperative communication systems, which make use of the intermediate relays between the transmitter and the receiver, have been employed as an effective technique to combat the channel fading and to enhance system performance. Cooperative systems have some drawbacks such as high latency and may diversity order not guaranteed. To alleviate the negative effects of these factors, the relay selection protocol is employed in cooperative communication systems to increase overall cooperative system performance. Relay selection in the cooperative systems enables the source to cooperate with the single relay node rather than multiple relay nodes which guaranteed the diversity order.
