论文摘要
强烈建议使用低功率广泛区域（LPWA）技术作为物联网（IoT）应用程序的基础网络。它们提供了有吸引力的功能，包括宽范围的覆盖范围，较长的电池寿命和较低的数据速率。本文回顾了这项技术的当前趋势，重点是它提供的服务及其面临的挑战。提出了用于LPWA实施的工业范例。与该领域的其他工作相比，该调查重点介绍了不同LPWA技术之间的集成需求，并为广泛的物联网应用和服务用例推荐了适当的LPWA解决方案。还分析了这些技术在市场上创造的机会。还将调查和改善LPWA网络运行的最新研究工作进行了比较和分类，以使研究人员能够快速提高该技术的当前状态。最后，确定了LPWA面临的挑战，建议将来进行未来研究的指示。
Low power wide area (LPWA) technologies are strongly recommended as the underlying networks for Internet of things (IoT) applications. They offer attractive features, including wide-range coverage, long battery life and low data rates. This paper reviews the current trends in this technology, with an emphasis on the services it provides and the challenges it faces. The industrial paradigms for LPWA implementation are presented. Compared with other work in the field, this survey focuses on the need for integration among different LPWA technologies and recommends the appropriate LPWA solutions for a wide range of IoT application and service use-cases. Opportunities created by these technologies in the market are also analyzed. The latest research efforts to investigate and improve the operation of LPWA networks are also compared and classified to enable researchers to quickly get up to speed on the current status of this technology. Finally, challenges facing LPWA are identified and directions for future research are recommended.
