Choosing the right IoT technology in 2023
Digitalisation, or digital transformation, is a term we’ve heard about in recent years. IoT, the Internet of Things, is one of many enabling technologies. Digital transformation is often a technical exercise, but to be successful, the transformation must demonstrate business value. Business benefits aside, in this article, we’ll focus on what you need to know …
LTE-M or NB-IoT?
LPWAN (Low Power, Wide Area Network) is not a technology standard but rather a group of wireless technologies that, as the name suggests, use low power but cover a large area. LPWAN is suitable for IoT, devices such as those in smart cities, smart sensor networks and fleet management do not need as much bandwidth …
NB-IoT part 4: different implementations
NB-IoT can be implemented in three ways: standalone, guard band and in-band. NB-IoT standalone operation Standalone: NB-IoT channel used outside the 4G/5G spectrum, for example, the spectrum used for GSM or satellite communications. Standalone operation is when NB-IoT is used exclusively within a spectrum, whether in a private or public network. This model provides the …
