| Non-Terrestrial Networks (NTNs) are wireless communication systems that comprise flying or orbiting elements, such as drones or satellites, that provide network coverage. The high momentum of the satellite domain, especially in Low Earth Orbit (LEO) environments, is fueling the NTN field. One application of NTNs is providing connectivity to IoT devices. In this regard, the 3GPP has been developing NTN extensions for NarrowBand IoT (NB-IoT). On the other hand, for the sake of performance improvement, especially for energy-constrained IoT devices, it is important that upper-layer protocols also be efficient. At the application layer, the Constrained Application Protocol (CoAP) is a lightweight, IP-based web transfer protocol, designed for constrained-node networks, which are typical in IoT environments.
This project proposes the development, validation and evaluation of an IoT application over CoAP and NTN NB-IoT. The project will focus on the use of real endpoints (IoT device and server) running real implementations of CoAP and NTN NB-IoT. A complete testbed emulating satellite coverage conditions will be used. The feasibility of carrying out experiments with real satellite connectivity will be assessed. Performance evaluation will focus on parameters such as packet delivery ratio, latency, and energy consumption. |
