Abstract
Low Rate Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum (LR-FHSS) has emerged as a promising physical layer modulation for enhancing the scalability and robustness of LoRaWAN-based IoT networks. While its benefits in terms of interference mitigation and network capacity have been well documented, its impact on energy efficiency remains underexplored. This paper presents an analytical and simulation-based investigation of energy efficiency in LR-FHSS networks, taking into account key transmission parameters such as header repetitions and the application of Successive Interference Cancellation (SIC). We first develop an analytical model that quantifies energy efficiency as the ratio of goodput to total power consumption, incorporating the stochastic nature of traffic, fragmentation structure, and collision probability. The model is then validated and extended through simulations Our results highlight the trade-offs between reliability and energy consumption under varying network loads and header repetition strategies. Notably, we demonstrate that integrating SIC into LR-FHSS significantly enhances energy efficiency without modifying end-device configurations. Finally, we identify the optimal configuration of header repetitions that balances energy usage and network reliability, thereby guiding future deployments of large-scale IoT systems leveraging LR-FHSS.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
