Use unlicensed LPWANs for cost-effective & secure massive industrial IoT

By: Derek Wallace

This article introduces Low Power Wide Area Network (LPWAN) technologies for the Internet of Things. LPWANs can be divided into the licensed and unlicensed spectrum. Under the unlicensed spectrum we find the LoRaWAN® standard; a cost-effective, low battery, long-range technology specifically designed to serve massive industrial low-critical IoT. Thanks to its easy network roll-out with flexible, secure connectivity models, LoRaWAN allows for a rapid global use case development to benefit cities, enterprises, rural areas and large industries on either public, private or hybrid models. The global LoRaWAN standard is promoted by a group of IoT companies called the LoRa Alliance®. The LoRa Alliance is a non-profit organization representing over 400 member companies developing and operating LoRaWAN equipment from silicon to solutions.
