Low Power Wide Area Network (LPWAN)

Low Power Wide Area Network (LPWAN) technology allows transmission of IoT (Internet of Things) data over long range with minimal power consumption and overheads. In this direction LoRaWAN and Sigfox are clear emerging technology winners, who are in the IoT landscape specifically to benefit the millions of devices in the future with good bandwidth, long range, for private networks, good security, great interference resistance.

LoRaWAN provides reliable bi-directional IoT and M2M interaction within a range up to 15 km in the suburban areas, and up to 5 km in densely populated cities at the rate of up to 50 kbps.

Sigfox ensures low-bandwidth uplink transmission at up to 300 bps but has a very limited downlink at only 12 bytes per day. The signal can travel the distance up to 50 km in rural area and up to 10 km. Low bandwidth contributes greatly to reduced power consumption – an end-device can operate up to 10 years on a single AA battery.

The Things in Air team is equipped with the latest technologies to meet your requirements in LoRaWAN and Sigfox standards.
