Low-power wide-area networks (LPWANs) are gaining popularity in the research community due to their low power consumption, low cost, and wide geographical coverage. LPWAN technologies complement and outperform short-range and traditional cellular wireless technologies in a variety of applications, including smart city development, machine-to-machine (M2M) communications, healthcare, intelligent transportation, industrial applications, climate-smart agriculture, and asset tracking. This review paper discusses the design objectives and the methodologies used by LPWAN to provide extensive coverage for low-power devices. We also explore how the presented LPWAN architecture employs various topologies such as star and mesh. We examine many current and emerging LPWAN technologies, as well as their system architectures and standards, and evaluate their ability to meet each design objective. In addition, the possible coexistence of LPWAN with other technologies, combining the best attributes to provide an optimum solution is also explored and reported in the current overview. Following that, a comparison of various LPWAN technologies is performed and their market opportunities are also investigated. Furthermore, an analysis of various LPWAN use cases is performed, highlighting their benefits and drawbacks. This aids in the selection of the best LPWAN technology for various applications. Before concluding the work, the open research issues, and challenges in designing LPWAN are presented.INDEX TERMS Low-power wide-area networks, wireless networks, Internet of Things, design objectives, network topology, architecture, and applications. I. INTRODUCTIONThe Internet of Things (IoT) has the potential to change the way we live and work by providing its essential services to all the smart devices which are connected to it. IoT alleviates various challenges of wireless networks such as robust internet connectivity among a large population of smart devices, energy constraints in mobile edge devices, fast data transfer, efficient bandwidth utilization, and increased data gathering capability/reliability at the receiver. To achieve these goals, the devices must be optimally connected to the network, resulting in a fast exchange of sensed data facilitating intelligent decision-making to control the physical world phenomenon yielding a smart ecosystem. Several independent studies have predicted that in coming years IoT plays a crucial role in various social and commercial applications such as smart healthcare, intelligent transporta-tion, climate-smart agriculture, rescue operations, logistics, smart cities, industries, utilities, smart buildings, consumer electronics, security, asset tracking, smart waste management systems, cognitive manufacturing, and Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communications [1]-[5]. Furthermore, it has been estimated that by 2025, the adoption of smart M2M gadgets and electronic goods can overtake the number of human subscribers utilizing smartphones, desktops, notebooks, and similar objects.

“…Regarding communication network design, the authors in [4] presented two main scenarios of AMI operation: regular operation, also known as scheduled meter reading, when all customers are receiving the corresponding electric power; and the outage and restoration management (ORM) scenario, when there is an electric outage affecting a group of customers and more control messages flowing on the AMI network. According to Ref.…”

“…Advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) represents the first step towards smart grid as they provide the necessary infrastructure to support wide system measurement and visibility [3]. Automatic communication between customers and utilities [4], reduced tampering [5] and enabling customers to respond to their expectations to manage and generate their own electricity [6] are among the direct benefits of the smart grid infrastructure. However, with advances in wireless technologies, a knowledge gap in the analysis of the capability of recent technologies to support multiple applications of the AMI system is identified [7].…”

“…NANs are expected to serve a significant number of applications, in addition to SM data collection, such as outage detection, demand response, electric vehicle charging, and security distribution [11]. Among the different traffic types that can be found in AMI networks are: scheduled meter reading, on-demand meter reading, time-of-use (TOU) usage, firmware updates, and outage and restore management (ORM) [4]. Each type of traffic has a specific behavior [11], which can be summarized as follows: given the nature of applications, upstream traffic volume will be higher than downstream; traffic per region will vary and so the requirements (i.e., traffic profile will not be the same); all links must be operating and have available resources when smart meters send measurement data which is a critical and resource-demanding task of the network; and alert overhead (additional data rate requirements are added when networks operate under emergencies).…”

Internet of Things (IoT) technologies are opening new opportunities and services for different smart grid applications such as advanced meter infrastructures (AMI), distributed energy resources, and electric vehicles. Among these applications, AMIs represent the first step toward future smart grid implementation by enabling the reading and recording of electric power consumption on request or a schedule. In this study, the main focus is designing an IoT-based architecture to support AMIs' daily reporting and billing in a residential grid. First, the network modeling for AMI is discussed. Long range (LoRa) technology, as one of the promising candidates for long range low power wide area networks (LPWANs), has been studied and discussed. A comprehensive analysis of the LoRa-based architecture is given for a case study of an actual residential grid, Puerto Montt, Chile. The results are analyzed and discussed for packet delivery ratio, energy consumption, throughput, number of collisions, and frequency distribution.

There given to discuss the study results about one of three deployment scenarios performance (in-band deployment mode) of the narrow-band internet of things (NB-IoT) technology. The study is carrying out with help of simulation modeling and experimental testing of the main network parameters, namely: radio coverage, network capacity, user experience, and their dependencies on each other. Comparison of the results of a physical experiment and simulation modeling shows their high convergence and confirms the adequacy of the applied testing methodology. As a case scenario provided an example of NB-IoT implementation on a 4G mobile network in the 800 MHz band, in a suburban area for remote metering applications. The article presents the applying testing methodology of NB-IoT that adapted to the local conditions of radio network planning. Based on the obtained data, adducing the main conclusions about the feasibility of using an in-band scenario for deploying NB-IoT on a 4G network in a suburban environment.
