“…A simple approximate model of the preamble contention was developed in [26]; in contrast to our model, the approximate model [26] does not explicitly consider the backoff nor the limited number of transmission attempts. A simplified model of LTE connection establishment was represented through a G/G/1 queue in [27]. A high-fidelity Markov chain model encompassing physical and medium access control mechanisms of 3GPP Universal Terrestrial Access, which is closely related to LTE, has been developed by Yun [28].…”

The connection establishment in Long-Term Evolution Advanced (LTE-A) is often executed for distributed user equipment (UE) nodes with frequent small data sets for transmission to the central enhanced Node B. LTE-A connection establishment consists mainly of an access barring check (ABC) followed by preamble transmission (contention). Previous studies of connection establishment have often assumed Poisson characteristics (without verifying the Poisson assumption). In this paper, we introduce a simple equilibrium analysis framework for comprehensively evaluating the LTE-A connection establishment, including both access barring and preamble contention. We conduct a detailed analysis of the backlog arising from the uniform backoff over up to T max o slots by UE requests that failed the barring check or collided in the preamble contention. We verify that the process representing the numbers of backlogged UE requests rejoining the connection establishment tends to Poisson process characteristics for high barring probability and long maximum timeout T max o . We present numerical comparisons of our equilibrium model with simulations for practical parameter settings. The comparisons illustrate the effects of the parameter settings on the convergence of the LTE-A connection establishment dynamics to Poisson characteristics for nonsynchronized and synchronized request arrivals. Index Terms-Access barring check (ABC), backlog model, Long-Term Evolution Advanced (LTE-A), Markov modulated poisson process, Poisson process, preamble contention, uniform backoff.

“…To ease the congestion on the air interface, those downlink assignments and uplink grants for MTC devices, which cannot be served by Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH), can be aggregated into a transport block on PDSCH identified by a special radio network terminal identifier (RNTI) called MTC-RNTI [80]. MTC devices monitor PDCCH channel with their own cell RNTI and MTC-RNTI simultaneously.…”

A huge increase of machines attached to wireless networks is expected in the next few years. A large part of these machines will be covered by some wireless wide area networks. The arrival of cellular M2M (machine-to-machine) communication poses new requirements due to its specific characteristics. For most of the cellular M2M applications, the essential requirement is low energy consumption level or high energy efficiency. This survey provides a global view of the network technologies previewed for cellular M2M. In this survey, we study the existing classifications of M2M applications according to different criteria in the literature. The comparison of traffic characteristics between M2M and human-to-human is also proposed. Quality of service (QoS) requirements for typical M2M applications are resumed. The advance of reference M2M network architectures proposed by the Standard Development Organization (SDO) is investigated. We identify two possible effort directions to improve the energy efficiency for cellular M2M. The first one is to evolve the current existing 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) Consortium cellular networks to effectively support MTC (Machine Type Communication). The other direction is to design M2M-dedicated networks from scratch, which are often called low-power wide-area (LPWA) networks. We review, compare and categorize the proposals related to energy issues of cellular M2M mainly over the period 2011-2015 for the first direction. We introduce the development of LPWA networks for the other research directions. We highlight that the cooperative relaying, the design of energy-efficient signaling and operation, the new radio resource allocation schemes, and the energy-efficient random access procedure are the main points of improvement. It is important to jointly use the aforementioned approaches, for example, joint design of random access control and radio resource allocation, to seek for a trade-off between energy efficiency and other system performances.

“…The corresponding eNBs process these non access stratum signalling in bulk and forward it towards the MMEs. A similar method proposed in , named as bundling transmission method in which authors show a multiplexed packet data unit format that contains multiple downlink assignment or uplink grant messages for multiple MTC devices. This method reduces overhead in physical control channel when control channel element is limited. Signalling message compression scheme: Bulk signal handling scheme helps to reduce the amount of traffic but generates extra delay for processing message as a bulk.…”

Smart applications, Internet of things, cloud computing technologies are becoming connected together by autonomous and intelligent devices. Communication among those devices, called machine‐type communication (MTC) can be done through cellular networks. A cellular network typically handles both voice and data traffic. Cellular based machine‐to‐machine (M2M) communication utilises cellular infrastructure to convey their information among MTC devices. Although MTC devices generate small amount of data traffic, massive amount of MTC devices create overload problem which hugely impacts the radio access and core networks of the cellular system. This article discusses M2M systems, its various applications, architectural requirements, functionalities, services and features from congestion and overload control point of view. In particular, a survey of congestion control problem in M2M systems and its various solutions are discussed in this article. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
