    Abstract: The low power wide area network communication mechanism mainly allocates the semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) frames to the terminal devices having network access requirements sequentially by the gateway. The SPS cycle is composed of a plurality of SPS frames and at least one buffering frame. In each SPS cycle, a data reception window is activated by the gateway according to each allocated SPS frames; the SPS frames that the networked terminal devices belong to are activated synchronously within each SPS cycle in order for the networked terminal devices to perform a data transmission with the gateway during each SPS cycle and ensure that the data transmission does not overlap with the data sent by other terminal devices. The scheduling may be re-scheduled at a preset time interval to allocate the SPS frames of terminal devices that are inoperable or out of service area to the terminal devices having network access requirements.
