While LoRaWAN is widely used for long-range wireless access, its Aloha-based MAC protocol struggles with high collision rates in dense networks. Existing solutions such as irregular repetition slotted ALOHA (IRSA) and contention resolution diversity slotted ALOHA (CRDSA) have improved network performance by using packet repetitions and successive interference cancellation. However, they do not fully leverage the unique properties of LoRaWAN Spreading Factors (SFs). To address this gap, we propose a new approach called SF-IRSA, where IoT devices transmit replicas using different SFs, enabling the decoder to apply an SF-IRSA-SIC process that leverages both temporal and spatial dimensions for efficient packet decoding. Our theoretical analysis and simulations show that SF-IRSA outperforms IRSA and CRDSA in terms of throughput and reliability. Specifically, using up to two SFs results in a 16.2% increase in the asymptotic throughput compared to standard IRSA. When extending to three SFs, the throughput gain reaches 116.9%, with a maximum of 224.52% while using 6 SFs.<\/p>","protected":false},"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_crdt_document":""},"class_list":["post-2034","publication","type-publication","status-publish","hentry"],"blocksy_meta":[],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>IRSA Over Spreading Factors for Spatio-Temporal SIC in Scalable LoRaWAN IoT Networks - WELL-E<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/wp.well-e.org\/en\/publication\/irsa-over-spreading-factors-for-spatio-temporal-sic-in-scalable-lorawan-iot-networks\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"IRSA Over Spreading Factors for Spatio-Temporal SIC in Scalable LoRaWAN IoT Networks - WELL-E\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Authors: Nadjib Benserir and Yaya Etiabi and Essaid Sabir and Elmehdi Amhoud and Halima Elbiaze and Abdoulaye Banir\u00e9 Diallo Date: 2025-12-01 Status: Published DOI: 10.1109\/ISCC65549.2025.11326493 View External Publication The rapid growth of the Internet of Things (IoT) has triggered the need for scalable and energy-efficient communication solutions.
