Interconnectivity Panel – EU Space Week 2018 "Low power interconnectivity” by David Fernandez, Sigfox

1. A brief
introduction to

2. In 2010 we launched Sigfox
to connect any everyday object to the internet
from anywhere in the world.

3. Using public radio spectrums
our revolutionary technology
listens and captures the tiniest of data

5. Low Energy
Device in sleep mode most of the time
Small messages (up to 12 bytes)
Few messages per hour or day
Smart cooperation between network
and device
Overall TCO at lowest
Device: Enabling the simplest, lowest
cost radio chips
Network: One central network
Integration: comprehensive API and IoT
platform provider
Global & Reliable
One contract, One network
Managed Network with high Quality of
Service
Highly resistant to interference &
jamming
Simple
One central system: No pairing, no
configuration
No connection. No protocol: the
simplest and most efficient link
between objects and the Internet

6. Sigfox:
Creating connectivity specifically for devices.

8. GCT Semi:
Save battery with Sigfox,
secondary connectivity
Sigfox as a backup for cellular
Sigfox core connectivity with high QoS, to unlock massive IoT
adoption and address industrial use cases.
Complementary to BLE, Wi-Fi, GSM & beyond
Sigfox in 100% of connected devices: as a primary or as a
backup connection
Hundreds of devices in the ecosystem and growing
Live

9. Disposable envelopes
use one-single disposable device
Affordable devices
Re-invent inventory,
supply chain and logistics
Connectivity to open up new market potential targeting
even disposable objects & retrofit of existing RF devices
A technological breakthrough leading to a business game
changer
Reducing object costs to tens of cents
Retrofit existing RF
devices

10. A variety of geolocation services to fit YOUR use case
Sigfox-only geolocation
Sigfox + other technology geolocation
Global & less energy
consuming.
Based on probabilistic
algorithms.
(2018)
Machine learning running for
higher precision on specific
routes and POI (such as
logistic nodes)
Combined with Wi-Fi Combined with GPS
Live
Achieve higher precision &
indoor, in dense areas
The best of WIFI and Sigfox
service continuity guaranteed
High precision outdoor, with
medium precision indoor.
The best of GPS or Sigfox

11. Enable a simple device to communicate on the Sigfox
network wherever it is…
Special world wide module (Multiple radio configuration zone)
Selected Base stations (118 Point of Interest) broadcast RC
beacon every 5 minutes
Unique hardware SKU
2018

12. • Global satellite coverage
used as an extension of
terrestrial networks
• Seamless integration
between satellite and
terrestrial networks with
same objects and messages
• Scalable constellation of
nanosatellites
• Same ISM band used to
connect objects to terrestrial
networks and satellites
Sigfox satellite constellation will complete Sigfox Operator terrestrial networks in remote areas

13. IoT is not about the hardware.
It’s not even about the data.
It’s about the service.

14. Improving business efficiency
& transforming business processes
examples: predictive maintenance, better
asset utilization, higher productivity
Generating new opportunities
& enabling new business models
examples: HVAC-as-a-service thanks to
remote monitoring
Bringing to our customers…
