Internet of Things (IoT) technology is rapidly expanding the use of its application, from individuals to industries. Owing to this, the number of IoT devices has been exponentially increasing. Considering the massive number of the devices, overall energy consumption is becoming more serious. From this point of view, attaching low-power wake-up radio (WUR) to the devices can be one of the candidate solutions to deal with this problem. With WUR, IoT devices can go to sleep until WUR receives a wake-up signal, which enables a significant reduction of its power consumption. Meanwhile, one concern for WUR operation is the addressing mechanism, since operational efficiency of the wake-up feature can significantly vary depending on the addressing mechanism. We therefore introduce addressing mechanisms for IoT devices equipped with WUR and analyze their performances, such as elapsed time to wake up, false positive probability and power/energy consumption, to provide appropriate addressing mechanisms over practical environments for IoT devices with WUR.

The development of IoT concept makes it necessary to search and improve models and methods for analyzing the state of remote autonomous devices. Due to the fact that some devices are located outside the controlled area, it becomes necessary to develop universal models and methods for identifying the state of low-power devices from a computational point of view, using complex approaches to analyzing data coming from various information channels. The article discusses an approach to identifying IoT devices state, based on parallel functioning classifiers that process time series received from elements in various states and modes of operation. The aim of the work is to develop an approach for identifying the state of IoT devices based on time series recorded during the execution of various processes. The proposed solution is based on methods of parallel classification and statistical analysis, requires an initial labeled sample. The use of several classifiers that give an answer "independently" from each other makes it possible to average the error by "collective" voting. The developed approach is tested on a sequence of classifying algorithms, to the input of which the time series obtained experimentally under various operating conditions were fed. Results are presented for a naive Bayesian classifier, decision trees, discriminant analysis, and the k nearest neighbors method. The use of a sequence of classification algorithms operating in parallel allows scaling by adding new classifiers without losing processing speed. The method makes it possible to identify the state of the Internet of Things device with relatively small requirements for computing resources, ease of implementation, and scalability by adding new classifying algorithms.

Recently, the scientific community has demonstrated a special interest in the process related to the integration of the agent-oriented technology with Internet of Things (IoT) platforms. Then, it arises a novel approach named Internet of Agents (IoA) as an alternative to add an intelligence and autonomy component for IoT devices and networks. This paper presents an analysis of the main benefits derived from the use of the IoA approach, based on a practical point of view regarding the necessities that humans demand in their daily life and work, which can be solved by IoT networks modeled as IoA infrastructures. It has been presented 24 study cases of the IoA approach at different domains ––smart industry, smart city and smart health wellbeing–– in order to define the scope of these proposals in terms of intelligence and autonomy in contrast to their corresponding generic IoT applications.

The conventional infrastructure for mobile-communication is used for providing internet-of-things (IoT) services by the third-generation partnership project (3GPP) with the help of the recently developed cellular internet-of-things (CIoT) scheme. Random-access procedure can be used for connecting the large number of IoT devices using the CIoT systems. This process is advantages as the huge devices are accessed in a concurrent manner. When random access procedures are used simultaneously on a massive number of devices, the probability of congestion is high. This can be controlled to a certain extent through the time division scheme. A power efficient time-division random access model is developed in this paper to offer reliable coverage enhancement (CE) based on the coverage levels (CL). The quality of radio-channel is used for categorization of the CIoT devices after assigning them with CLs. The performance of random-access model can be improved and the instantaneous contention is relaxed greatly by distributing the loads based on their coverage levels into different time periods. Markov chain is used for mathematical analysis of the behavior and state of the devices. The probability of blocking access, success rate and collision control are enhanced by a significant level using this model in comparison to the conventional schemes.


Internet of Things (IoT) constitutes a network of various devices has an equipment with the mandatory facility of communication and optional facilities of sensing, information collecting, storage and processing. IoT network has been used for research and development purpose in many application areas such as military environment, traffic management, and e-healthcare system. IoT network was enormous in scale and complexity, mainly in terms of energy efficiency because battery lifetime is limited. The previous routing protocols for IoT are difficult and require a huge memory use and high energy consumption which are insufficient for IoT network processing. For that reason, an efficient routing algorithm needed to decrease energy consumption while communication. To tackle this problem, this paper proposes Less Energy Consumption Routing (LECR) algorithm. This algorithm reduces energy consumption using 4 ways in IoT, (1) Sleep and Wake up Scheduling, (2) Route Discovery in IoT Base Station (3) Less Power Consumption Route for Communication (4) Reduce Overhead while Routing. The experimental result proves the LECR algorithm reduces IoT devices battery drain and increases lifetime of the IoT network efficiently

The low-power wide-area network (LPWAN) technologies, such as LoRa, Sigfox, and NB-IoT, bring new renovation to the wireless communication between end devices in the Internet of things (IoT), which can provide larger coverage and support a large number of IoT devices to connect to the Internet with few gateways. Based on these technologies, we can directly deploy IoT devices on the candidate locations to cover targets or the detection area without considering multihop data transmission to the base station like the traditional wireless sensor networks. In this paper, we investigate the problems of the minimum energy consumption of IoT devices for target coverage through placement and scheduling (MTPS) and minimum energy consumption of IoT devices for area coverage through placement and scheduling (MAPS). In the problems, we consider both the placement and scheduling of IoT devices to monitor all targets (or the whole detection area) such that all targets (or the whole area) are (or is) continuously observed for a certain period of time. The objectives of the problems are to minimize the total energy consumption of the IoT devices. We first, respectively, propose the mathematical models for the MTPS and MAPS problems and prove that they are NP-hard. Then, we study two subproblems of the MTPS problem, minimum location coverage (MLC), and minimum energy consumption scheduling deployment (MESD) and propose an approximation algorithm for each of them. Based on these two subproblems, we propose an approximation algorithm for the MTPS problem. After that, we investigate the minimum location area coverage (MLAC) problem and propose an algorithm for it. Based on the MLAC and MESD problems, we propose an approximation algorithm to solve the MAPS problem. Finally, extensive simulation results are given to further verify the performance of the proposed algorithms.


As we know, world is moving into the era of modern digital technology and looking forward tomassive machine type communications (mMTC), whichis an integral part of Internet of Things (IoT). The current technologysupporting mMTC market are not standardized; therefore, there are many short comings from physical layer which includes complexity in deployment, poor reliability, lesser flexibility, security threats and high maintenance cost. To address all these challenges in 5G machine type communication (MTC), the 3rdGeneration Partnership Project (3GPP) in release 13has standardizedNarrowband Internet of Things (NB-IoT) as a better choice in deployment of 5G MTC. NB-IoT has been recommended by ITU as a 5G standard and this recognition of NB-IoT as a core technology in massive machine type communication will impact the telecommunication industry. NB-IoT mainly works on low power wide area networks (LPWAN), which isconsidered as a major technology driver in 5G wireless technologies. Initially,we have compared a spectrum power of NB-IoT with W-Fi ac considering their own bandwidthand specificationsas per 3GPP and IEEE 802.11,respectively.As per analysis, we found many advantages of deploying NB-IoT in 5thgeneration wireless technology including ubiquitous coverage, low power consumption, less transmission power and better interference rejection. Considering thisfact of NB-IoT, we proposedand design a NB-IoT uplink systemusing NPUSCH, UL-SCH and UL-DMRS as per 3GPP 5G specificationsand performance analysis has been carried out

One major challenge in deploying Deep Neural Network (DNN) in resource-constrained applications, such as edge nodes, mobile embedded systems, and IoT devices, is its high energy cost. The emerging approximate computing methodology can effectively reduce the energy consumption during the computing process in DNN. However, a recent study shows that the weight storage and access operations can dominate DNN's energy consumption due to the fact that the huge size of DNN weights must be stored in the high-energy-cost DRAM. In this paper, we propose Double-Shift, a low-power DNN weight storage and access framework, to solve this problem. Enabled by approximate decomposition and quantization, Double-Shift can reduce the data size of the weights effectively. By designing a novel weight storage allocation strategy, Double-Shift can boost the energy efficiency by trading the energy consuming weight storage and access operations for low-energy-cost computations. Our experimental results show that Double-Shift can reduce DNN weights to 3.96%–6.38% of the original size and achieve an energy saving of 86.47%–93.62%, while introducing a DNN classification error within 2%.
