Abstract

In this paper, we investigate an energy-efficient Long Range (LoRa) wireless network powered by hybrid energy which consists of an energy harvesting source and the grid. The grid allows to compensate for the randomness and intermittency of the harvested energy. The aim is to propose a dynamic energy-efficient resource management scheme for LoRa wireless networks that enables green Internet of Things (IoT). Hence, we formulate a grid energy cost minimization problem subject to minimum received signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), and channel, spreading factor (SF) and energy availability constraints. The formulated problem is simplified and decoupled into two sub-problems which allows to derive the optimal resource management solution but with high computational complexity. Then, we propose a low complexity heuristic channel and SF assignment, and energy management algorithm for dynamic LoRa wireless networks. Numerical results shows the efficient use of renewable energy in green dynamic LoRa wireless networks.
