A Study on IoT Testbeds: Requirements and Chal-lenges

The Internet of Things is the first step in achieving intelligent systems that affect everyday life. By providing the on-line data from all physical events and providing the real-world interactive platform for interoperability, these systems will have a significant role in providing the intelligent data needed. But to ensure that it has a comprehensive system, it tests all its features and functions at different stages of design, development, production and use, which requires the establishment of specialized IOT labs because the Internet of Things has the characteristics that make existing laboratories could not ability to test the products and services of the IOT. For this reason, the test in the real environment (the testbeds) for the IOT have been taken into consideration. Different definitions for these types of test environment have been proposed and various requirements have been defined for them. In this article, after defining the context of the test, the reasons for turning organizations into this testing environment are dis-cussed. In the following, the requirements and challenges of testbeds on the Internet of Things are examined and then a number of existing testbeds are introduced.
