ABSTRACT

This study is prepared to identify research gaps in topics related to the optimization of LoRa Gateway placement and its coverage model. These related works were identified using bibliometric analysis coupled with a systematic literature review of the study search index through the Scopus database -indexed publications.

The results from this study shows 8 papers on LoRa Gateway optimization. A visualization of the network map was rendered using VOS viewer. Network safety and performance prediction were revealed as the particular research gaps. The study also presented results of mapping used to identify, prioritize, and visualize research gaps. The study output would prove a useful resource for a quick insight on the techniques and methodologies in this field.
