Abstract

The objective of our work is to provide an in-depth analysis and compilation of device-level strategies for enhancing the energy efficiency of Machine-Type Communication (MTC). The necessity for such strategies stems from the growing demand for sustainable and energy-efficient communication systems in various industries. We begin by presenting a comprehensive background on MTC, detailing its essential characteristics, the architecture of machine-type devices (MTDs), and their diverse applications. Next, we explore a range of energy-efficient techniques designed to optimize key subsystems of MTDs. These subsystems include the radio for communication efficiency, processing power for computational efficiency, and sensing subsystems for data acquisition efficiency. Each technique is evaluated for its potential impact on overall energy consumption and the trade-offs and limitations associated with these techniques are also assessed. In concluding, the paper highlights potential future research directions in this domain, outlining the ongoing need for innovative solutions to meet the escalating demands of energy efficiency in MTC.

机器型通信中的设备级节能策略：电源、处理、传感和射频视角

我们的工作旨在深入分析和汇编设备级策略，以提高机器型通信（MTC）的能效。各行各业对可持续和高能效通信系统的需求日益增长，因此有必要制定此类策略。我们首先全面介绍了 MTC 的背景，详细说明了其基本特征、机器型设备 (MTD) 的架构及其各种应用。接下来，我们将探讨一系列旨在优化 MTD 关键子系统的节能技术。这些子系统包括提高通信效率的无线电、提高计算效率的处理能力以及提高数据采集效率的传感子系统。本文评估了每种技术对总体能耗的潜在影响，还评估了与这些技术相关的权衡和局限性。最后，本文强调了这一领域未来的潜在研究方向，概述了对创新解决方案的持续需求，以满足 MTC 对能效不断升级的要求。
