Title
Reliable Millimeter Wave Communication for IoT Devices
Abstract
In this paper, we propose a nearest line-of-sight relay (NLR) selection technique for internet of things (IoT) devices in millimeter wave (mm Wave) relaying systems. We present a tractable analytical framework to characterize the network connectivity for the proposed technique using tools from stochastic geometry. Moreover, we investigate the impact of the relay-selected region and the distance between the base station and IoT device on the network connectivity of mmWave relaying systems. The analytical results unveil a high degree of accuracy which is confirmed by extensive simulations at different relay densities, blockage densities, and signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) thresholds. Results obtained via both simulations and analyses reveal the trade-off between the network connectivity and the energy consumption of IoT devices. Results also reveal a significant impact of blockage density and controlling the relay-selected region on the network connectivity and energy consumption.
