      <dc:description>The introduction of Narrowband Internet of&#xd;
Things (NB-IoT) as a cellular IoT technology aims to support&#xd;
massive Machine-Type Communications applications. These&#xd;
applications are characterized by massive connections from a&#xd;
large number of low-complexity and low-power devices. One of&#xd;
the goals of NB-IoT is to improve coverage extension beyond&#xd;
existing cellular technologies. In order to do that, NB-IoT&#xd;
introduces transmission repetitions and different bandwidth&#xd;
allocation configurations in uplink. These new transmission&#xd;
approaches yield many transmission options in uplink. In this&#xd;
paper, we propose analytical expressions that describe the influence of these new approaches in the transmission. Our analysis&#xd;
is based on the Shannon theorem. The transmission is studied&#xd;
in terms of the required Signal to Noise Ratio, bandwidth&#xd;
utilization, and energy per transmitted bit. Additionally, we&#xd;
propose an uplink link adaptation algorithm that contemplates&#xd;
these new transmission approaches. The conducted evaluation&#xd;
summarizes the influence of these approaches. Furthermore, we&#xd;
present the resulting uplink link adaptation from our proposed&#xd;
algorithm sweeping the device’s coverage.</dc:description>
