Lightweight learning algorithms for massive IoT and analysis of their performance

Executive summary We address in this deliverable parameters optimization as well as the automation of devices configuration in massive IoT LoRaWAN scenarios. The utilization of automation techniques for devices configuration is a crucial evolution in IoT LoRa radio access in the way for network virtualization and automation. The challenges in LoRa radio access networks virtualization consists on partitioning the resources between different services and devices that are connecting in an ALOHA-like access. We will investigate how to perform an automatic orchestration of radio resources between different devices. In particular, we will focus on a reducing the overhead required to ensure a good functioning of the automated devices configuration. We intend to (i) develop strategies enabling IoT devices automated configuration (ii) explore possible strategies enabling to follow a certain goal, such as maximize the energy efficiency, or the reliability, represented here by the Packet delivery ratio, and (iii) prepare a platform for service differentiation of different IoT slices
