NB-IoT Random Access Procedure Analysis

Abstract

Narrowband Internet of Things (NB-IoT) is a cellular technology that will provide connection for a massive number of low-cost and low-power devices. This work describes the analysis of delay the NB-IoT, calculating the probability of success in the random access procedure, as well the average delay and normalized flow rate for different parameter values, aiming at the best solution in the configuration of the network parameters in order to meet the access capacity and data rate requirements.
