Abstract EN
A dual coverage system for Internet of Things (IoT) environments is introduced.
This system is used to connect IoT nodes regardless of their locations.
The proposed system has three different architectures, which are based on satellites and High Altitude Platforms (HAPs).
In case of Internet coverage problems, the Internet coverage will be replaced with the Satellite/HAP network coverage under specific restrictions such as loss and delay.
According to IoT requirements, the proposed architectures should include multiple levels of satellites or HAPs, or a combination of both, to cover the global Internet things.
It was shown that the Satellite/HAP/HAP/Things architecture provides the largest coverage area.
A network simulation package, NS2, was used to test the performance of the proposed multilevel architectures.
The results indicated that the HAP/HAP/Things architecture has the best end-to-end delay, packet loss, throughput, energy consumption, and handover.
