Choosing the appropriate IoT protocol for a certain application was and still a critical issue for IoT applications, as protocols vary in behavior in different applications and under different network status. IoT application protocols have a recent focus of attention especially those protocols for the low-powered IoT applications and constrained devices. A brief survey of IoT layers and applied protocols for each layer and their applications were presented, besides, a detailed survey of IoT protocols with a presentation of the main researches that have been done to evaluate their performance. As a use case for this comparative study, the MQTT protocol was chosen because of its simplicity and its publish /subscribe model to be evaluated and compared against other application protocols.
