Random Access for Massive Machine-Type Communications
Zhuo Sun
Abstract:As a key enabler for the Internet-of-Things (IoT), machine-type communications (MTC) has emerged to be an essential part for future communications. In MTC, a number of machines (called users or devices) ubiquitously communicate to a base station or among themselves with no or minimal human interventions. It is envisioned that the number of machines to be connected will reach tens of billions in the near future. In order to accommodate such a massive connectivity, random access schemes are deemed as a natural a… Show more
