Self-Organizing Network Topology for Autonomous IoT Systems

The concept of the Internet of Things is increasingly defining the development of communication networks both now and in the future. The largest application of the IoT concept is wireless touch networks (WTN). Due to the potentially widespread use of WTN in all areas of human life, they are also called pervasive sensory networks. WTN belongs to the class of self-organizing networks, for which the construction principles, routing protocols, quality of service parameters, traffic models, and characteristics are significantly modified compared to traditional infrastructure networks, etc. The features of the application of dynamic routing protocols for the construction of a self-organizing network of autonomous IoT systems are considered. This article provides an overview of the main methods for calculating the topology of self-organizing networks. A review of known dynamic routing protocols for mobile radio networks is given, the advantages and disadvantages of proactive and reactive approaches are shown.
