TLDR
This document provides guidance for RTO settings in LPWAN, and describes an experimental dual RTO algorithm for LPWan that addresses the challenge of buffering at network elements such as radio gateways.Abstract:
Low-Power Wide Area Network (LPWAN) technologies are characterized by
very low physical layer bit and message transmission rates. Moreover,
a response to a message sent by an LPWAN device may often only be
received after a significant delay. As a result, Round-Trip Time (RTT)
values in LPWAN are often (sometimes, significantly) greater than
typical default values of Retransmission TimeOut (RTO) algorithms.
Furthermore, buffering at network elements such as radio gateways may
interact negatively with LPWAN technology transmission mechanisms,
potentially exacerbating RTTs by up to several orders of magnitude.

Multimodal Retransmission Timer for LPWAN
Carles Gomez,Jon Crowcroft +1 more
TL;DR: The evaluation results show that the Multimodal RTO reduces the RTO versus RTT misalignment of the TCP RTO algorithm by an average factor of up to 5, and reduces latency in the presence of losses by up to 2 orders of magnitude, while operating safely.

DNS-based dynamic context resolution for SCHC
TL;DR: This paper proposes a mechanism based on DNS to find the context rules associated with an End Device, allowing it to be downloaded from an HTTP Server, and evaluates the corresponding delay added to the communications using experimental measurements from a real testbed.
