Abstract

The article investigates the problem of building a modern Internet of things. LP-WAN approach has been found to be a promising approach today. The Internet of Things network levels and the necessary requirements for its successful functioning are investigated. The correspondence between the network levels and the established requirements is established. The main shortcomings that exist in the architectures of the Internet of Things to date are analyzed. Based on an analysis of the features and disadvantages of IoT, requirements have been formulated to modify the network architecture for each of the levels required for the successful operation of the Internet of Things. Further steps are proposed to develop a modified architecture.
The Internet of Things architecture is proposed using wireless LP-WAN small-volume data transmission technology. The architecture is based on the above requirements. Its advantages will be ease of deployment, scalability and support and development. To improve these indicators, it was suggested to use LoRаWan technology for the LP-Wan architecture. To reduce the cost and ease of scaling, it is suggested to migrate the entire server architecture to a cloud-based CDN-enabled service center, which, as the number of network users increases, will allow geographically split services for easy access and better load balancing of the service itself. To reduce the development time and simplify writing of the service and client applications, it is suggested to use JSON / XML technology to set the format for communication between the client and the server.

Keywords: Architecture; IoT; Internet of Things; network; LP-WAN; JSON/XML; LoRаWan.
