New Internet of Things (IoT) technologies such as LongRange (LoRa) are emerging which enable power ecientwireless communication over very long distances. Devicestypically communicate directly to a sink node which removesthe need of constructing and maintaining a complex multi-hop network. Given the fact that a wide area is coveredand that all devices communicate directly to a few sinknodes a large number of nodes have to share the commu-nication medium. LoRa provides for this reason a rangeof communication options (centre frequency, spreading fac-tor, bandwidth, coding rates) from which a transmitter canchoose. Many combination settings are orthogonal and pro-vide simultaneous collision free communications. Neverthe-less, there is a limit regarding the number of transmitters aLoRa system can support. In this paper we investigate thecapacity limits of LoRa networks. Using experiments wedevelop models describing LoRa communication behaviour.We use these models to parameterise a LoRa simulation tostudy scalability. Our experiments show that a typical smartcity deployment can support 120 nodes per 3.8 ha, which isnot sucient for future IoT deployments. LoRa networkscan scale quite well, however, if they use dynamic commu-nication parameter selection and/or multiple sinks.
