1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

A long-range wide area network (LoRaWAN) is one of the leading communication technologies for Internet of Things (IoT) applications. In order to fulfill the IoT-enabled application requirements, LoRaWAN employs an adaptive data rate (ADR) mechanism at both the end device (ED) and the network server (NS). NS-managed ADR aims to offer a reliable and battery-efficient resource to EDs by managing the spreading factor (SF) and transmit power (TP). However, such management is severely affected by the lack of agility in adapting to the variable channel conditions. Thus, several hours or even days may be required to converge at a level of stable and energy-efficient communication. Therefore, we propose two NS-managed ADRs, a Gaussian filter-based ADR (G-ADR) and an exponential moving average-based ADR (EMA-ADR). Both of the proposed schemes operate as a low-pass filter to resist rapid changes in the signal-to-noise ratio of received packets at the NS. The proposed methods aim to allocate the best SF and TP to both static and mobile EDs by seeking to reduce the convergence period in the confirmed mode of LoRaWAN. Based on the simulation results, we show that the G-ADR and EMA-ADR schemes reduce the convergence period in a static scenario by 16% and 68%, and in a mobility scenario by 17% and 81%, respectively, as compared to typical ADR. Moreover, we show that the proposed schemes are successful in reducing the energy consumption and enhancing the packet success ratio.
