By 2020, over fifty billion devices are connected through radio communications. In conjunction with the rising of the Internet of Things (IOT) market, low power wide space networks (LPWAN) became a most well-liked low-rate long-range radio communication technology.
Sigfox, LORA, and NB-IoT are the 3 leading LPWAN technologies that vie for large-scale IoT preparation. This provides a comprehensive and comparative study of these technologies that perform economical solutions to connect sensible, autonomous, and heterogeneous devices. We have a tendency to show that Sigfox and LORA are advantageous in terms of battery lifespan, capacity, and cost. Meanwhile, NB-IoT offers advantages in terms of latency and quality of service. To boot, we have a tendency to analyze the IOT success factors of these LPWAN technologies.
