A Survey of Low-Latency IoT System Using FPGA Accelerator

Abstract

Internet of Things has taken its place in the world of technology fairly in the previous few years. It is assumed that there will be approximately 4 billion IoT devices interconnected by the year 2030. IoT has not widespread full feathered in all the fields of application. However, the future holds a wide spectrum of implementations and dependency in IoT, which demands digital computing parameters such as faster processing of data, reduced latency and parallel processing of multiple data channel simultaneously. This publication provides a solution to satisfy these parameters, using FPGA (field-programmable gate array) accelerators in the IoT systems.In IoT, it is necessary to achieve data-centric parameters such as higher bitrate at a seamless flow rate avoiding data congestion and data traffic. The predictability of the endpoint is another important parameter to be considered in an IoT system. In this paper, we will discuss the use of Constrained Application Protocol and speculate the possibility of enhancing the performance parameters such as latency and predictability by accelerating the cloud servers with FPGA Accelerator.
