Cover Story: The ICARUS (International Cooperation for Animal Research Using Space) satellite IoT system was launched in 2020 to observe the life of animals on Earth: their migratory routes, living conditions and causes of death. These findings will aid species conservation, protect ecosystem services of animals, measure weather and climate, and help to forecast the spread of infectious zoonotic diseases and possibly natural disasters. The aim of our research is to explain the system design of ICARUS. We introduce a new class of IoT waveforms—the random-access very-low-power wide-area networks (RA-vLPWANs), which enable uncoordinated multiple access at very low signal power and low signal-to-noise ratios. RA-vLPWANs used in ICARUS solve the problems hampering conventional low-power wide-area-network IoT systems when applied to space communications. View this paper
