Hetero-Net: An Energy-Efficient Resource Allocation and 3D Placement in Heterogeneous LoRa Networks via Multi-Agent Optimization

arXiv CS.LG

ArXi:2603.20404v1 Announce Type: cross The evolution of Internet of Things (IoT) into multi-layered environments has positioned Low-Power Wide Area Networks (LPWANs), particularly Long Range (LoRa), as the backbone for connectivity across both surface and subterranean landscapes. However, existing LoRa-based network designs often treat ground-based wireless sensor networks (WSNs) and wireless underground sensor networks (WUSNs) as separate systems, resulting in inefficient and non-integrated connectivity across diverse environments.
