Gateway sink placement for sensor node grid distribution in LoRa smart city networks

Low Power Wide Area Network (LPWAN) is a type of wireless communication network designed to allow long range communications at a low bit rate among things (connected objects), such as sensors operated on a battery. It is a new technology that operate in unauthorized spectrum [1] which designed for w...
