AB  - The integration of multiple communication protocols is becoming increasingly important to ensure seamless interoperability between devices in IoT networks. Recently, there has been a growing trend of combining Thread, Zigbee, and Bluetooth Low Energy network (BLE) to maximize the strengths of each protocol.
However, this process can increase the complexity of device installation and operation, leading to additional cost burdens. Therefore, this paper proposes efficient communication strategies among multiple Wireless Personal Area Network(WPAN) protocols to enhance cost efficiency and address potential issues that may arise during the implementation of integrated networks.
