HARE：支持自组织LPWAN中的高效上行链路多跳通信
HARE: Supporting efficient uplink multi-hop communications in self-organizing LPWANs
摘要：
低功耗广域网（LPWAN）作为物联网（IoT）中的新代理的出现将导致来自各种行业的低自动化流程融入数字世界。典型LPWAN部署的单跳概念虽然简单而健壮，但忽略了网络设备的自组织能力，在拥挤的场景中缺乏可扩展性，并且很少关注能耗。为了最大限度地发挥设备的能力，本文提出了HARE协议栈作为一种新的LPWAN技术，它足够灵活，可以在证明更有效的情况下采用上行链路多跳通信。通过这种方式，真实测试平台的结果显示，在保持相同网络可靠性的同时，使用多跳方法可节省高达15%的能源。系统的自组织能力和弹性也已验证后，执行多次迭代的关联机制和故意关闭网络设备。
英文摘要：
The emergence of low-power wide area networks (LPWANs) as a new agent in the Internet of Things (IoT) will result in the incorporation into the digital world of low-automated processes from a wide variety of sectors. The single-hop conception of typical LPWAN deployments, though simple and robust, overlooks the self-organization capabilities of network devices, suffers from lack of scalability in crowded scenarios, and pays little attention to energy consumption. Aimed to take the most out of devices' capabilities, the HARE protocol stack is proposed in this paper as a new LPWAN technology flexible enough to adopt uplink multi-hop communications when proving energetically more efficient. In this way, results from a real testbed show energy savings of up to 15% when using a multi-hop approach while keeping the same network reliability. System's self-organizing capability and resilience have been also validated after performing numerous iterations of the association mechanism and deliberately switching off network devices.
