NB-IoT and LTE-M towards massive MTC: Complete performance evaluation for 5G mMTC

Since the emerging 5G wireless network is expected to significantly revolutionize thefield of communication, its standardization and design should regard internet ofthings (IoT) among main orientations. Also, IoT applications introducenew requirements other than throughput support massive machine-type commu-nication (mMTC) where small data packets are occasionally sent. Therefore, moreimportance attached coverage, latency, power consumption, connection den-sity. For this purpose, third generation partnership project (3GPP) has introducedtwo novel cellular technologies supporting mMTC, known as NB-IoT LTE-M. This paper aims determine system configuration deployment required forNB-IoT LTE-M fully meet mMTC in termsof throughput, battery life, density. An overview ofthese their principles also described. A complete evalua-tion performance against presented,and it shown that these can be met but only under certain conditionsregarding deployment. followed by a performancecomparative analysis, which mainly conducted limits suitableuse cases each technology.
