An Internet of Things System Based on Device-to-Device Communication Technology and Radio-Frequency Identification

Abstract

This paper aims to build a mobile communication system suitable for different application scenarios of the Internet of Things (IoT). For this purpose, an IoT system was developed based on device-to-device (D2D) communication technology and radio-frequency identification (RFID). The D2D-RFID-based IoT system combines the merits of mobile communication (e.g. 4G) and the RFID. The analysis shows that the proposed system boasts good mobility, stable transmission, short time delay, fixed IP, and no need of a central server. The research findings have a great application potential in different IoT scenarios.
