Access technologies for machine type communication networks

Abstract

Machine-type communication (MTC) has it provides connections for of MTC devices, forming a basis for the Internet of things. Physical layer has a pivotal role in M2M communications. M2M should be made efficient enough in terms of its power consumption and spectrum utilisation for to accommodate a large number of MTC devices. In this work is studied the issues on PHY-layer designs relevant to M2M communications. We surveyed related research works based on MTC network designs and the issues in this respect
