What are the four layers of the basic IoT architecture as described in the chapter?

The chapter describes the basic IoT architecture as consisting of four layers: the sensing layer, network layer, processing layer, and application layer. The sensing layer gathers data from the environment using sensors and actuators. The network layer provides communication and connectivity among IoT components. The processing layer analyzes and interprets data, and the application layer interacts with end users.

Key points

  • The four layers are the sensing, network, processing, and application layers.
  • The sensing layer uses sensors and actuators to record environmental data such as moisture, temperature, sound, and light.
  • The network layer provides connectivity using technologies such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Zigbee, and cellular networks like 4G and 5G.
  • The processing layer collects, analyzes, and interprets raw data from IoT devices.
  • The application layer is the topmost layer and provides a user interface to control and interact with IoT devices.
