Performance analysis of an LTE gateway for the IoT

TLDR
The suitability of LTE for the interconnection of aggregated edge devices is investigated, under the assumption that the Constrained Application Protocol (CoAP), which is becoming increasingly popular, is used.
Abstract
In the Internet of Things (IoT) the edge devices often rely on gateways to connect to the Internet, to reduce costs and energy consumption. For those scenarios where the gateway itself does not have a wired Internet connection, LTE is a candidate solution due to its high spectral efficiency, bandwidth, and coverage. In this paper, the suitability of LTE for the interconnection of aggregated edge devices is investigated. The study is carried out under the assumption that the Constrained Application Protocol (CoAP), which is becoming increasingly popular, is used. The performance analysis is carried out through packet-level simulation with the open source simulator ns3.

Measuring energy consumption for RESTful interactions in 3GPP IoT nodes

TL;DR: This paper presents power consumption measurements in end devices, when REST-based resource retrieval is performed with HTTP and CoAP over 3GPP EDGE, HSPA and LTE networks, and shows that for a few transactions of small packet sizes, HTTP performs comparatively well in terms of power consumption.

Towards Efficient Mobile IoT with Heterogeneous Networks

TL;DR: The work presented throughout this dissertation seeks to characterize, evaluate, and improve the performance of mobile GWs in M2M communications, investigating the benefits of the interoperability introduced by standards, of the concurrent use of different networks in heterogeneous networks scenarios as well as of the exploitation of opportunistic transmissions and the use of network coding techniques.
