A. I. A. Jabbar, Fawaz Y. Abdullah . Effect of RACH Procedure on the Performance of LTE-based M2M Communication. International Journal of Computer Applications. 147, 5 ( Aug 2016), 12-17. DOI=10.5120/ijca2016911071
In this paper, the parameters of the Random Access Channel (RACH) of LTE/ LTE-A based M2M communication under congestion situation are investigated. These parameters include the effect of the Backoff Indicator (BI), Hybrid Automatic Repeat-reQuest (HARQ) and contention resolution timer (CRT) on the Performance of LTE-based M2M Communication. The results indicate that the parameters of the RACH procedure have an impact on the network's performance, such as delay and packets dropped.
