Assignment Description

Wireless sensors and actuators connected by the Internet of Things (IoT) are central to the design of
cyber-physical systems. Such systems require meeting strict requirements of throughput, latency and
ange, while maintaining low energy consumption and providing high levels of security. Wireless
communication technologies provide a platform for the foundation of such systems. Understanding
of the wireless communication principles and the wireless communication standards for cyber
physical systems and internet of things is essential for the design of such systems.


For further reading, could refer to the article “Wireless Communication and Security Issues for Cyber–
Physical Systems and the Internet-of-Things” [1]. The article is available on the IEEE Explore platform,
which could be accessed via the Melbourne Institute of Technology Li
ary.

The assessment requires the students to compare wireless communication technologies and
evaluate the wireless communication standards for wireless cyber physical systems and internet of
things. The students are required to submit a report, which includes:

1. Comparison of wireless communication technologies in terms of:

a. Communication spectrum
. modulation techniques
c. medium access control mechanism
d. network topologies

2. Evaluate wireless communication standards for cyber physical systems and internet of things
including:

a. UHF RFID and NFC
. ZigBee, Z-Wave
c. Bluetooth and Bluetooth Low Energy
d. Cellular Systems
e. IEEE 802.11P
f. Low-Power Wide Area Networks

3. Wireless Network Performance

Based on your evaluation of wireless communication standards for cyber physical systems
and internet of things, identify the standard which provides the best network performance.
Justify your selection.

Introduction
Crypto cu
ency is a modern digital cu
ency based on the distributed ledger which is termed as blockchain. Blockchain is digitized and distributed holds all the transactions that are related with crypto cu
ency. Once the transaction executed successfully online, change of records created by transaction is not possible. First of all, blockchain was developed as a proposal for the accounting system on virtual cu
ency with a concept of a technology called distributed ledger. Therefore, due to distributed operation with distributed ledger it does not require centralized authority to manage. The management and authenticity of transaction with blockchain is in the hand of all the entities who are involved in the transactions of digitized crypto cu
ency online through distributed ledger.
Part 1. Blockchain
Block chain uses the peer to peer network to records the transactions of digitized cu
ency or other digital things in shared digital medium. The shared distributed ledger records the transactions permanently sequential chain of cryptographically protected hashed blocks.
Architecture of Blockchain
A blockchain is a distributed ledger that stores the tamper proof transactions based on the three basics frameworks information technology system [1]. These three basics components that make blockchain functioning as per the specifications are as follows.
Platform : An application having the capability to function of transactional database system and runs overs the distributed servers constructed like the distributed ledger. The nodes which run with the distributed ledger supports the transactions to be executed. This application is installed on all the servers and it is duty of each server to maintain the cryptography for all the transactions executing or executed and distributed ledger database adds the records. There is no need of third party to authenticate transactions as the users authenticate the transactions. The data of transaction of blockchain is being stored in the flat file system or database. The storing of the data depends upon the preference of users.
Nodes : Blockchain works on Internet protocol of IP protocol suite with a peer to peer network. As, with peer to peer network there is not any central control and management. Therefore, no central node is used to manage and control the functionalities of blockchain [2]. The nodes of blockchain collaborate in the services of distributed ledger management for the transactions. A node in blockchain has the role like a central authority or a third party which is trusted. A complete replicated copy of flat file or database system are stored on each of the node of blockchain. The owner information is also managed by the nodes when transaction is performed by a user. All the history of transactions are contained for all the users by nodes with blockchain.
The nodes of blockchain have the same structure due to fact that these are the parts of the blockchain network, but the node may do diverse role with respect to the different functional aspects of the business. Basically, there are four different categories of nodes found with blockchain and these all categories of nodes finds and manages the connections with peers and provide actions to validate the blocks of blockchain. The node does not play any lookup externally as each node maintains the copy of entire blockchain database system or flat file system
Protocol Stack for Network : Network protocols are used with blockchain to provide handshaking between the nodes, serialization to the exchange of message, and peer discovery to make contact. The overlay network of blockchain allows many categories of blockchain such as private and public. This network protocol stack layer is used by developer for blockchain to support different categories of applications of blockchain.
As, blockchain uses the Internet Protocol to discovery of peer nodes. TCP/IP protocol suite is the main protocol which governs the communication of transactional and other relevant information among the nodes those are booted. The general architectural with layered approach of blockchain is presented in figure 1.
Figure 1. General Cloud based Architecture of Blockchain
These three mentioned layers of blockchain are the architectural framework and the integration of different technologies such as cryptography, point to point network and programming with blockchain makes this functional in secured environment.
Features

ency transactions. The main features of blockchain...
