According to IoT Analytics, NB-IoT, LoRaWAN, and Sigfox are today the most popular technologies for low-power wide-area networks (86% of the market), both in terms of end-user adoption as well as ecosystem support. While NB-IoT utilizes licensed bands, LoRaWAN and Sigfox both employ the sub-GHz ISM bands, potentially interfering with each other.In this paper, we present a thorough coexistence study between LoRaWAN and Sigfox, in realistic urban scenarios, with different duty cycles and traffic conditions. The choice of such scenarios and simulation parameters are supported by an in-depth lit-erature review, and simulations are based on the SEAMCAT simulator. The results offer new insights on the coexistence of LoRaWAN and Sigfox for emerging IoT applications. Finally, as interference mitigation strategy, we analyze the performance obtained applying protection distance mechanisms.

Abstract

According to IoT Analytics, NB-IoT, LoRaWAN, and Sigfox are today the most popular technologies for low-power wide-area networks (86% of the market), both in terms of end-user adoption as well as ecosystem support. While NB-IoT utilizes licensed bands, LoRaWAN and Sigfox both employ the sub-GHz ISM bands, potentially interfering with each other.In this paper, we present a thorough coexistence study between LoRaWAN and Sigfox, in realistic urban scenarios, with different duty cycles and traffic conditions. The choice of such scenarios and simulation parameters are supported by an in-depth lit-erature review, and simulations are based on the SEAMCAT simulator. The results offer new insights on the coexistence of LoRaWAN and Sigfox for emerging IoT applications. Finally, as interference mitigation strategy, we analyze the performance obtained applying protection distance mechanisms.
