Abstract

Recent advancements in wireless technology has led to the development of large number of Machine-to- Machine (M2M) and Internet of Things (IOT) applications, with the fastest foreseen growth rate in coming years. The key functional requirements include long range, energy efficiency and suitable data rates. To provide a better solution compared to existing wireless technologies, IEEE 802.11ah HaLow was standardized by making amendments to IEEE 802.11 in 2016. It is a sub 1 GHz IOT Brand WiFi Technology with the capability of multiple band multimode of operation , improved physical and link layer, longer transmission range, energy conserving mechanisms and operability of up to 4 spatial streams. However, an in-depth performance analysis of this standard needs to be further investigated. This work provides BER and Effective throughput analysis of IEEE 802.11ah for various modes of operation. The presented analysis is helpful for the development of adaptive modulation & coding to include link adaptation in this standard.
