- Abstract
With the expansion in the use of IoT, increasing the efficiency of these networks has become even more significant. Objects need reliable communications at suitable speed to be able to reach the expected performance. In a heterogeneous network of IoT, the objects can include users and related devices. Despite the hybrid Li-Fi and Wi-Fi networks, IoT needs were somewhat met. However, the efficiency of these networks depends on the choice of access points at the network level. In this study, a new algorithm was proposed based on the access point selection model, considering the strategic behavior of the objects and users. In this algorithm, inspired by access point selection model, a new adaptive algorithm was selected by choosing the access point by Markov game to enhance the load balancing and efficiency in IoT networks based on Wi-Fi and Li-Fi combination. According to the simulation results, it is seen that the proposed method could greatly increase the efficiency of IoT network and better distributes network load between access points with different technology. Overall network throughput was estimated at an average of at least 10% compared to the load-balancing method with fuzzy logic approach proposed in before research.
