Wi-Fi certified Wi-Fi Direct is a certification mark for devices that support the technology it enables Wi-Fi devices to connect directly to devices for sharing of information or exchanging data over wireless network. Moreover, Enhancing the performance of traditional cellular networks Device-to-Device (D2D) communications have become an attractive solution for that the Wi-Fi Direct protocol or technology are being used. By using Wi-Fi Direct protocol, there are various experiments have been carried out for fast, efficient and secured device to device (D2D) communication. This paper encloses the review on Wi-Fi direct device to device communication and how it can be beneficial in the Internet of Things. In this paper, we also enclose the comparative analysis of different Wi-Fi Direct based device-to-device communication protocols with their respective benefits and issues or challenges. It also provides the brief study of Wi-Fi Direct D2D algorithms available and also provides the challenges in the same for implementing it in Internet of Things. At last, paper encloses various opportunities and challenges based on Wi-Fi Direct D2D communications in Internet of Things.
