Abstract (AI)
This letter proposes a method to approximate LoRa performance over heavy multipath channels. Firstly, the multipath time delay and LoRa signal duration are combined to analyze the path overlapping interference quantitatively. Then simple BER approximations in coherent and non-coherent detections are derived with Gaussian Q-function and algebraic formulas. With the heavy multipath channel model in 3GPP to mimic the realistic indoor industrial scenarios, the approximate expressions are verified by Monte Carlo simulations. Moreover, performance comparison results show that a high spreading factor leads to severe multipath overlap and may result in BER reduction.
