The document discusses various communication protocols used in Internet of Things (IoT) systems. It describes several common protocols including Bluetooth, WiFi, Zigbee, Z-Wave, LoRaWAN, cellular networks, and NFC. Each protocol has distinct features that make it suitable for different types of IoT applications. For example, Bluetooth and Zigbee are used for short-range industrial settings due to their low-energy use and security, while cellular and LoRaWAN enable long-range communication over larger areas. Together, these protocols enable a wide variety of IoT devices and applications to securely connect and exchange information.
