The document presents a case study comparing LoRaWAN and NB-IOT technologies. LoRaWAN is a low-power wide-area networking protocol designed for connecting battery-operated devices to the internet over regional or global networks. NB-IOT is a narrowband radio technology standard developed by 3GPP for cellular devices and services, specifically designed for low-power stationary sensors. The case study compares the technologies' bandwidth, coverage, battery life, throughput, security features, cost efficiency, and suitability for different use cases such as smart metering and agriculture. Overall, LoRaWAN consumes less power, has lower costs, and is better suited for privately-owned networks serving applications like smart agriculture.

MIRANG PANDYA HRISHIKESH SAKPAL Contents LoRa WAN? NB-IOT? Technological Comparison Use Case Comparison 1) Power Consumption 2) Cost Efficiency Key Points Conclusion What Is LoRa or LoRa WAN? LoRa stands for Long Range Radio and is mainly targeted for M2M and IoT networks. This technology will enable public or multi-tenant networks to connect a number of applications running on the same network. LoRa WAN is a "Low Power, Wide Area” (LPWA) networking protocol designed to wirelessly connect battery operated ‘things’ to the internet in regional, national or global networks. Where Is LoRa Used? LoRa can be used to connect sensors, gateways, machines, devices,etc. wirelessly to the cloud. LoRa is flexible for rural or indoor use cases in smart agriculture, smart cities, industrial IoT (IIoT), smart environment, smart homes and buildings, smart utilities and metering, and smart supply chain and logistics. What Is NB-IOT? Narrowband Internet of things is a low-power wide-area network radio technology standard developed by 3GPP for cellular devices and services. NB-IoT was made specifically with low-power stationary sensors in mind. For each device deployed in a network, this protocol offers wide coverage areas with deep indoor penetration. Where Is NB-IOT Used? An example that is typically used by the industry is that of smart meters in basements from the indoor penetration perspective. It’s also reasonable to use that example since smart meters drive the LPWAN market. Smartmetering (electricity, gas, and water),Facility management services, intruder and fire alarms for homes & commercial properties. Technology Parameters LoRaWAN NB-IOT

Key Points. LoRaWAN consumes less power compared to NB-IoT. Since it consumes less power, LoRaWAN also provides a longer battery life compared to NB-IoT (15+ years compared to 10+ years). Peak data throughput for NB-IoT is 60 Kbps, a touch higher than LoRaWAN. NB-IoT is a more secure solution due to 256-bit 3GPP encryption (compared to AES 128-bit for LoRaWAN). Latency on NB-IoT is usually lower than LoRaWAN. Both standards support geolocation to the same degree. Conclusion Overall, LoRaWAN is considerably cheaper than NB-IoT. Not only are upfront costs lower thanks to higher market adoption and falling chip prices, but its open standard means bare minimum licensing fees. By contrast, NB-IoT can be more expensive, especially if you factor in the connectivity costs from cellular providers. Privately owned LoRaWAN networks are the primary choice for smart agriculture against NB-IoT powered solutions. Thank You
