IOT Day EPITA — LPWA Networks
1 like423 views
Low Power Wide Area Networks (LPWA) are a new type of network designed for the Internet of Things (IoT). LPWA networks use low bandwidth and power to connect billions of devices globally at a low cost per device. They are well-suited for high device density applications where devices only need to send small amounts of data occasionally. By 2025, LPWA networks like Sigfox and LoRaWAN are projected to represent 20-25% of the global IoT connectivity market. Sigfox is the first global LPWA network operator, using an "Ultra Narrow Band" technology that allows for massive network capacity and high energy efficiency of connected devices.
