Abstract: A few potential IoT communication protocols at the application layer have been proposed, including MQTT, CoAP and REST HTTP, with the latter being the protocol of choice for software developers due to its compatibility with the existing systems. We present a theoretical model of the expected buffer size on the REST HTTP client buffer in IoT devices under lossy wireless conditions, and validate the study experimentally. The results show that increasing the buffer size in IoT devices does not always improve performance in lossy environments, hence demonstrating the importance of benchmarking the buffer size in IoT systems deploying REST HTTP.
