Whitepaper - How to build a mutil-technology scalable IoT Connectivity Platform?Actility
Â
In this paper, we investigate the challenges facing service providers and enterprises for deploying and monetizing LPWAN solution.
We show in this paper that the traditional M2M approach might not be cost-effective for the needs of LPWAN IoT deployments due to dramatically lower ARPU requirements of IoT compared to traditional M2M. We also examine both cellular IoT (NB-IoT or Cat-NB1, Cat-M1, Cat-1) and LoRaWAN, with the objective to demonstrate the complementary aspects of the two technologies. We show how operators extend existing M2M use cases and swap 2G using cellular IoT, and in addition tap into the new unlicensed IoT market space using LoRaWAN. Interestingly, LoRaWAN is a natural over-the-top play for cellular IoT operators, as cellular IoT is an ideal backhaul technology for unlicensed LPWAN concentrators.
Properly matching a connectivity solution to a use case is a complex multidimensional problem requiring analysis of several factors including battery lifetime, coverage, throughput, latency, total cost of ownership (TCO), amongst other factors. We discuss these factors and attempt to build a technology selection chart, and then build a business case for multi-technology IoT platform that leverages both LoRaWAN and Cellular IoT to serve the needs of all IoT use cases. We also provide insights on the service provider strategy for LPWAN deployment with examples from Tier-1 MNOs such as SK Telecom and Orange.
Finally, we conclude the paper with overview of ThingPark Wireless as a multi-technology platform that addresses the challenges for both LoRaWAN and Cellular IoT deployments.

Everything you need to know about IoT & LPWA networks (Low Power Wide Area) and their transformative potential for businesses and consumers alike in this white paper created by Orange. It includes:
An overview of LPWA technologies and their use cases across many verticals
In-depth looks at LoRaÂŽ, LTE-M and NB-IoT networks
The Orange view on the future of IoT for businesses and consumers
NB-IoT VS Lora
This article is talking about NB-IoT VS Lora, comparative analysis of NB-IoT and Lora technology.
The rapid development of the Internet of Things puts forward higher requirements for wireless communication technology. The LPWAN (low-power Wide-Area Network) is also rapidly emerging.
IoT applications need to consider many factors, such as node costs, network costs, battery life, data transmission rate (throughput), latency, mobility, network coverage, and deployment types. It can be said that no single technology can meet all IoT requirements demand.
NB-IoT and LoRa have different technical and commercial characteristics and are also the two most promising low-power wide-area network communication technologies.
Both of these LPWAN technologies have the characteristics of wide coverage, multiple connections, low speed, low cost, and low power consumption. Both are suitable for low-power IoT applications and are actively expanding their ecosystems.
Beginners: Introduction to 5G Reduced Capability (RedCap) Devices3G4G
Â
A quick introduction to new 3GPP Release-17 feature called RedCap or Reduced Capability New Radio devices. This feature was earlier called NR-Light / NR-Lite and is sometimes referred to as Low Complexity NR devices.
This tutorial looks at why this is needed, how is it different from the existing 5G requirements for eMBB, URLLC & mMTC, and why can't 4G be used instead of 5G for this feature.
We will also look at some of the proposals for enhancement of RedCap that are being discussed for 5G-Advanced in 3GPP Release-18

What is the difference between narrowband-IoT vs Lora in LPWAN technology?
The two Narrowband-IoT vs Lora technologies have different technical and commercial characteristics and therefore differ in terms of application scenarios. This article explains the differences between the Narrowband-IoT vs Lora two technologies and explains the application scenarios for which each is suitable.
Here have 6 main differences of Narrowband-IoT vs Lora comparisons.
What are the Benefits of LoRaWAN Technology?
Today, we talk about the seven benefits of LoRaWAN technology application.
In December 2021, LoRaWAN officially became the ITU International Standard for Low Power Wide Area Networks and has been endorsed by the International Telecommunication Union (ITU).
LoRaWAN is developed as an open standard and has been widely recognized by the low power wide area network community. The rapid adoption of this standard for global IoT low-power wide-area networks is a testament to its universality.
LoRaWAN is now a very popular LPWA communication standard that uses unlicensed radio spectrum in the ISM (Industrial, Scientific, Medical) band at frequencies ranging from approximately 433 MHz to 868 MHz, 915 MHz (standards vary around the world).
In the IoT connectivity environment, in addition to smart home networking and office space scenarios, many IoT devices will be connected and communicated in remote environments where the new environment will be inaccessible and require power connections due to M2M transmission coverage limitations.
Wireless IoT connections fall into two low-power camps: local area and wide area. Historically the two have not overlapped but advances in networking technologies make it possible for wide area technologies to perform the same functions as local area technologies with no additional cost or feature "sacrifice".

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
Â
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more âmechanicalâ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms.

We describe applications such as proving the strength of passwords, the provenance of email despite redactions, the validity of oblivious DNS queries, and the existence of mutations in DNA. Reef supports the Perl Compatible Regular Expression syntax, including wildcards, alternation, ranges, capture groups, Kleene star, negations, and lookarounds. Reef introduces a new type of automata, Skipping Alternating Finite Automata (SAFA), that skips irrelevant parts of a document when producing proofs without undermining soundness, and instantiates SAFA with a lookup argument. Our experimental evaluation confirms that Reef can generate proofs for documents with 32M characters; the proofs are small and cheap to verify (under a second).

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Â
Monitoring and observability arenât traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current companyâs observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumbleâŚ.many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

⢠Assuming Perfect battery with
linear decay without impact of
peak current on capacity
⢠LoRaWAN is 3-5X more power
efficient (especially at Cell
Edge/Poor Coverage Scenarios)
⢠LoRaWAN is best suited for
very small infrequent messages
due to its simple and
asynchronous nature
⢠NB-IoT/Cat-M1 is most suited

Peak current impact on battery lifetime
26
Impact of current on usable capacity
From technical specification of ER14505M Lithium-thionyl Chloride Spiral Battery
Battery chemistry and IoT :
- LiPo (used in mobile phones) : Not
possible due to ~2% self discharge rate
per month.
- Alkaline : OK but internal resistance
increases towards end of lifetime (cannot
accommodate high to peak current and
long lifetime) and at low temperatures.
- Lithium-Thionyl-Chloride (LTC) : more
expensive, self-discharge about 3%/year
(requires 2x the usable capacity for 15
years lifetime). Peak-current also impacts
capacity.
- Coin cell (Wearables) : only suitable for
LoRaWAN. They cannot provide high
peak current for NB-IoT/LTE-M

⢠LoRaWAN and Mobile IoT (LTE Cat-NB1, LTE Cat-M1) are
complementary
⢠LoRaWAN and Mobile IoT represent different market segments with
LoRa serving large number of devices with low cost, low power and
lowest data rate followed by NB-IoT and then LTE-M
⢠Combining LoRaWAN and Mobile IoT (LTE Cat-NB1, LTE Cat-M1)
solves the needs of all the IoT Use Cases
⢠We believe LoRaWAN will be WiFi of LPWAN IoT
and will run alongside 3GPP based IoT technologies
