3.1 Introduction

Advanced computerization, sustainable paradigms, and expeditious growth of the wireless Internet of Things (IoT) system functions with the use of sensors, actuators, and translators. In the recent era, the wireless IoT has become a rich field in the smart environment. It has rapidly increased the number of intelligent devices in the system and has effectively merged devices and the physical environment through the Internet, thus creating a smart system. The IoT network is an illustration of innovative automation and a rapid growth wireless system which exploits sensing, actuating, Artificial Intelligence, Blockchain Technology, and networking technologies to achieve the complete goal of the system. Firstly, the IoT network was invented in 1998 and developed in 1999 by Kevin Asthon [1]. The market of the IoT increased from $547 million in 2018 to $841 million in 2020, and according to a report by Gartner, by 2018, an estimated 23.14 billion devices were installed worldwide.

The IoT is well‐defined as a framework or environment where intelligent devices or things are connected and communicate and transfer data between devices at anytime and anywhere. In the IoT, intelligent devices have circumscribed sources of power and limited ...
