Internet of Things (IoT) solutions are increasingly being deployed for smart applications. With the rise of smart cities there is a need for low cost and long range Low Power Wide Area Network (LPWAN) technologies. LoRaWAN is an energy efficient and cheap LPWAN solution. It is rapidly being adopted all around the world. LoRaWAN however does not provide communication robustness in its basic conf...

In this paper, the potential to reduce energy consumption of end devices operating in a LoRaWAN (long-range wide-area network) is studied. An increasing number IoT components communicating over wireless networks are powered by external sources. Designers communication systems concerned with extending time IoT, hence need look for effective methods power consumption. This article proposes two al...

Wireless sensor networks are often located in areas where access to them is difficult or dangerous. Today, in wireless sensor networks, cluster-based routing protocols by dividing sensor nodes into distinct clusters and selecting local head-clusters to combine and send information of each cluster to the base station and balanced energy consumption by network nodes, get the best performance ...

In this paper, we present results of a study of the data rate fairness among nodes within a LoRaWAN cell. Since LoRa/LoRaWAN supports various data rates, we firstly derive the fairest ratios of deploying each data rate within a cell for a fair collision probability. LoRa/LoRaWAN, like other frequency modulation based radio interfaces, exhibits the capture effect in which only the stronger signa...

wireless sensor networks(wsn) have unique properties that distinguished them from other wireless networks and have special challenges. not-chargeable, not-changeable and limited power supplies of sensor nodes is the most important challenge of this networks, and if the power supply of node expired, a part of data maybe lost. because of the importance of covers in wireless sensors, in this work ...

Wireless networks, Internet of Things (IoT), Internet of Everything (IoE), and smart homes have become extremely important terms in our present-day life. Most of the buildings, companies, institutions, and even homes depend onthese technologies for interaction, communication, automation, and everything surrounding humans. To understand the advanced topics in wireless networks and IoT devi...

The rapid advancement in wireless over wired has augmented the need for improving theQuality of Service (QoS) over such wireless links. However, the wireless ad hoc networkshave too low bandwidth, and establishing a QoS in these networks is a difficult issue. So,support of quality of service in ad hoc networks is the topical issue among the networkscience researchers. In this research we are go...

Advances in low-power electronics design and wireless communication have enabled the development of low cost, low power micro-sensor nodes. These sensor nodes are capable of sensing, processing and forwarding which have many applications such as underwater networks. In underwater wireless sensor networks (UWSNs) applications, sensors which are placed in underwater environments and predicted ena...

LoRaWAN is one of the most popular LPWAN technology due to facility implement applications that require a low cost, energy consumption, data rate, and large coverage area. single-hop star-of-stars topology composed end-devices transmit be collected by gateways in Multihop networks are receiving attention community since it allows extend area improve efficiency, thus prolonging network lifetime....
