Abstract

Internet of things (IoT) allows millions of devices to be connected, measured, monitored to automate processes, and support better decision making. On the other hand, these IoT devices demand cost-effective, long-range, and power-efficient sensors and actuators. LoRaWAN can be considered as a promising way to overcome these issues. By leveraging LoRaWAN protocol into IoT systems, it will help to optimize energy consumption, capacity, cost, and coverage of the system. This study proposes a scheme for modeling the LoRAWAN network based on the availability of several independent radio frequency channels. As part of this approach, we also offer a model and calculation method. Numerical results show the efficacy of our proposed scheme.
