An Analytical Model for S-ALOHA Performance Evaluation in M2M Networks

Résumé

The S-ALOHA (i.e. slotted-ALOHA) protocol is recently regaining interest in Lower Power Wide Area Networks (LPWAN) handling M2M traffic. Despite intensive studies since the birth of S-ALOHA, the special features of M2M traffic and requirements highlight the importance of analytical models taking into account performance-affecting factors and giving a thorough performance evaluation. Fulfilling this necessity is the main focus of this paper: we jointly consider the impact of capture effect, diversity of transmit power levels with imperfect power control. We propose a low-complexity but still accurate analytical model capable of evaluating S-ALOHA in terms of packet loss rate, throughput, energy-efficiency and average number of transmissions. The proposed model is able to facilitate dimensioning and design of S-ALOHA based LPWAN. The comparison between simulation and analytical results confirms the accuracy of our proposed model. The design guides about S-ALOHA based LPWAN deduced from our model are: the imperfect power control can be positive with capture effect and appropriate transmit power diversity strategy. The trans- mit power diversity strategy should be determined by jointly considering network charges level, power control precision and SINR threshold to achieve optimal performance of S-ALOHA.
