The Internet of Things (IoT) relies on various types of networks to connect devices and enable communication. These networks include Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Zigbee, LoRaWAN, and cellular networks, each with its own strengths and weaknesses. Choosing the right type of IoT network depends on factors such as range, data rate, power consumption, and application requirements. For instance, Wi-Fi offers high data rates and is suitable for applications that require extensive data transfer, while Bluetooth is ideal for short-range communication with low power consumption.
