Abstract
The optimal transmit power that maximizes energy efficiency (EE) in Longe Range (LoRa) networks is investigated by using the deep learning (DL) approach. Particularly, the proposed artificial neural network (ANN) is trained two times; in the first phase, the ANN is trained by the model-based data which are generated from the simplified system model while in the second phase, the pre-trained ANN is re-trained by the practical data. Numerical results show that the proposed approach outperforms the conventional one which directly trains with the practical data. Moreover, the performance of the proposed ANN under both partial and full optimum architecture are studied. The results depict that the gap between these architectures is negligible. Finally, our findings also illustrate that instead of fully re-trained the ANN in the second training phase, freezing some layers is also feasible since it does not significantly decrease the performance of the ANN.
