A Survey of IoT Key Enabling and Future Technologies: 5G, Mobile IoT, Sematic Web and Applications

The Internet of Things (IoT) is the communications paradigm that can provide the potential of ultimate communication. The IoT paradigm describes communication not only human to human (H2H) but also machine to machine (M2M) without the need of human interference. In this paper, we examine, review and present the current IoT technologies starting from the physical layer to the application and data layer. Additionally, we focus on future IoT key enabling technologies like the new fifth generation (5G) networks and Semantic Web. Finally, we present main IoT application domains like smart cities, transportation, logistics, and healthcare.
