Survey on Internet of Things and 4G

Abstract

This nowadays Internet of Things (IoT) has become a platform where devices are becoming more efficient, with higher intellectual capability. For better implementation of the IoT, many challenges are present in 4th Generation of mobile communication technology (4G) that requires improvement of the IoT communication, cheaper cost of IoT products, lower latency and higher battery support. However, IoT device connectivity generates further privacy and security consideration. Existing research works are lack of basic details on 4G-based IoT. Through this paper general user will know not only the basic details but also understand basic security of 4Gbased IoT. It becomes a difficult task to manage large amount of data and combination of vendor applications. This paper aims at to focus the details of basic cellular 4G and IoT, their architectures, connectivity scenarios between IoT and 4G network and obviously security and privacy challenges, attacks, defense mechanism on Physical and MAC layers
