Abstract
With the increasing development of the cellular Internet of Things (IoT), the upcoming fifth-generation wireless network is required to support massive access of sporadic traffic devices. In this context, we design a three-phase transmission protocol which consists of device detection and channel estimation, uplink data transmission, and downlink data transmission for the cellular IoT, so as to realize massive access over limited radio spectrum. We analyze the performance of the proposed transmission protocol and derive closed-form expressions for the uplink and downlink achievable rates in terms of channel conditions and system parameters. Moreover, to improve the overall performance, we propose a length allocation algorithm by coordinating the three-phase transmission protocol in the unified sense. Extensive simulation results show that substantial performance gain can be obtained by the proposed algorithm.
