In this paper, the proposed methodology for conducting experiments on a small number of devices for evaluating systems with a large number of devices. A software package for assessing the performance of LPWAN (Long Range Wide Area Networks, LoRaWAN) networks is presented. An example of the operation of this software system as applied to the LoRaWAN network for estimating the probability of message delivery from a number of devices to a base station when implementing this technique is shown. This technique can be used to evaluate the performance of other LPWAN networks.
