Dedicated networks for IoT: PHY / MAC state of the art and challenges
Journal Title: EAI Endorsed Transactions on Internet of Things - Year 2015, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
This paper focuses on the the emerging transmission technologies dedicated to IoT networks.We first analyze the classical cellular network technologies when taking into account the IoT requirements, and point out the need of dedicated technologies for IoT. Then, we present the PHY and MAC layers of the technologies that are already deployed, or likely to be deployed: UNB by SigFox, CSS by LoRaTM,Weighless, and RPMA by Ingenu. We then compare their performances to highlight their pros and cons. Finally, we discuss on the open research challenges that still need to be addressed.

Joint Optimization of Carrier Sensing Threshold and Transmission Rate in Wireless Ad Hoc Networks
The ever-increasing demands of wireless traffic call for continuously growing the wireless network capacity or throughput. Carrier sensing threshold adaptation and transmission rate adaptation, two efficient mechanisms i...
A Partial-differential Approximation for Spatial Stochastic Process Algebra
We study a spatial framework for process algebra with ordinary differential equation (ODE) semantics. We consider an explicit mobility model over a 2D lattice where processes may walk to neighbouring regions independentl...
