Abstract

The futuristic trend is toward the merging of cyber world with physical world leading to the development of Internet of Things (IoT) framework. Current research is focused on the scalar data-based IoT applications thus leaving the gap between services and benefits of IoT objects and multimedia objects. Multimedia IoT (IoMT) applications require new protocols to be developed to cope up with heterogeneity among the various communicating objects. In this paper, we have presented a cross-layer protocol for IoMT. In proposed methodology, we have considered the cross communication of physical, data link, and routing layers for multimedia applications. Response time should be less, and communication among the devices must be energy efficient in multimedia applications. IoMT has considered both the issues and the comparative simulations in MATLAB have shown that it outperforms over the traditional protocols and presents the optimized solution for IoMT.
