Presentation slides from Everynet's Tracy Hopkins, who spoke at Digital Catapult's LPWAN Meetup #1 on 8 September 2016.

2. NUMBEROFCONNECTIONS
BIG
HUGE
The IoT market is going to be HUGE – irrespective of the actual forecasts!

3. …the question is not about which technology will WIN it is about a holisitc
approch to adding real world value using IoT and making a ROI
• This requires choices, choices in technology, business models, deployment,
operation and of course cost, both from a capex and opex perspective
• Each IoT application has a set different criteria to make it work for the end
customer – this is key to the success of IoT and will be the key driver the
HUGE number of connections..
• There is room for ALL technologies,
…..BUT it will be the ECO SYSTEM that will RULE
The IoT market is going to be HUGE – irrespective of the actual forecasts!

5. Low Power Wide Area Network (LPWAN) for Internet of Things (IoT)
• Bidirectional, acknowledged,
• Simple Star Network Topology
• Low data rate, Low cost Long battery life, Long Range
• 3 end device classes
License free Sub-GHz Frequencies
• Europe: 868 MHz Band (915MHz in USA – other global bands supported)
• Network channels can be freely attributed by the network operator
• 3 mandatory channels that all gateways should constantly receive:
Adaptive Data Rate (ADR)
• To optimize for fastest data rate versus range, maximize battery life, maximum
network capacity
