Adaptive Data Rate for Multiple Gateways LoRaWAN Networks
Résumé
We propose to optimize the LoRaWAN Adaptive Data Rate algorithm in case an inter-packet error correction scheme is available. We adjust its parameters based on the analysis of the LoRa channel with multiple reception gateways, supported by real-world traffic traces. The resulting protocol provides very high reliability even over low quality channels, with comparable Time on Air and similar downlink usage as the currently deployed mechanism. Simulations corroborate the analysis, both over a synthetic random wireless link and over replayed real-world packet transmission traces.
