Design of Low-Power Wide-Area Networks at Sea
The development of low-power wide-area (LPWA) technologies has opened up for the deployment of wireless networks for new Internet of Things (IoT) applications. One of these is the monitoring of buoys at sea, which tend to detach due to ice, stormy weather or collision with boats, etc. The main unknown for this appli- cation is the behavior of the wireless channel in different sea states and weathe
