After reading the Top 14 IoT Trends to Emerge in 2023 article, you will learn about what the 14 IoT Trends will be happening.
What is IoT?
The Internet of Things (IoT) is a system of connected devices, digital machines, and users with unique identifiers and network transportability that eliminates the need for human-to-human or human-to-machine interaction.
IoT is an important part of the new generation of information technology. Unlike the Internet, the main application objects of IoT are some physical devices, such as vehicles, home appliances, buildings, etc.
By embedding electronic software, sensors and some network connection devices in these physical devices, the exchange of data between devices can be realized, thus establishing a set of interconnected networks.
According to statistics, more than 43 billion devices are currently expected to be connected to the IoT worldwide, which will generate, share, collect and help people use data in a variety of ways.
The 14 most important IoT trends
Here are the 14 most important IoT trends that will change the world in 2023.
The principle and characteristics of GSM and NB-IoT
In this paper, we first analyze the principle and characteristics of GSM and NB-IoT, study the NB-IoT coverage enhancement methods, and compare and analyze the coverage capability of GSM and NB-IoT.
Each cell has a number of carrier frequencies, and each carrier frequency has eight-time slots, which means that eight basic physical channels are provided. In the wireless subsystem, the physical channels support the logical channels, and the physical channels are mapped to different logical channels according to the types of messages transmitted on the physical channels.
NB-IoT WiKi
NB-IoT (Narrowband IoT) is a low-power technology designed for Internet of Things (IoT) applications and other low-data rate communication requirements.
It uses narrowband radio spectrum and advanced power management techniques to efficiently utilize the available spectrum and extend the battery life of IoT devices.
NB-IoT is based on LTE cellular wireless technology and has been standardized by the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) as the global wireless communication standard for IoT applications.
LoRa Alliance Extends LoRaWAN Standard to Support the Internet of Things Applications
The LoRa Alliance Extends LoRaWAN Standard to Support IoT Applications by adding TS013-1.0.0, an application programming interface (API) for application payload decoder-encoders (codecs).
The LoRa Alliance reported it on October 25, 2022. The consortium is the global association supporting the Internet of Things (IoT), Low Power Wide Area Network (LPWAN) open LoRaWAN standard.
Adopting the new TS013-1.0.0 specification will allow device manufacturers and application service providers to reduce deployment complexity. This will make it easier and faster to deploy LoRaWAN devices.
After the read, you will know, what is a private 5G network and how a 5G private network works.
What is a private 5G network?
A private 5G network is a wireless network that uses the 5G mobile networking standard and is owned and operated by a single organization, rather than a commercial telecommunications provider. Private 5G networks are often set up for use by a specific business or organization and can be used to provide secure and reliable wireless connectivity for a variety of applications, such as industrial automation, remote monitoring, and more.
Unlike public 5G networks, which are available to anyone with a compatible device, private 5G networks are typically only accessible to authorized users.
A private 5G network is a local area network (LAN) that uses 5G technology to create a private network with unified connectivity, optimized services, and a secure way of communicating within a specific area.
The concept of a Private Network has been around for a long time. In contrast to public networks, which are primarily intended for the general public, private networks exist primarily to address specific industries/needs. The difference between a public network and a private network is that a public network serves the general public, while a private network serves a specific audience.
This article comprehensively explains low-power wide area network (LPWAN) technology for IoT.
IoT communication technologies are divided into two categories: short-range wireless LAN and low-power wireless WAN (LPWAN), Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, ZigBee, etc. are belong to short-range wireless LAN.
LPWAN is mainly used in long-range, low-bandwidth, low-power, and many connection needs of IoT application scenarios, the hottest LoRa in the market in recent years is the most representative technology in LPWAN. LoRa is the most representative technology in LPWAN.
Non-cellular low-power IoT technology solves the problem of large-scale and wide-coverage network connectivity for IoT applications, which makes up for the shortage of traditional cellular technology and promotes the application of IoT and large-scale deployment. Low-power wide-area networks will carry the burden of communication network economies of scale in the future IoT era.
What is wireless 5G LAN?
5G LAN is a LAN built in a 5G network, through which a LAN with mobility can be assembled to meet production and office needs. 5G LAN has the benefit of cross-territory mobility, so even if two people are thousands of miles apart, they can still set up a LAN to achieve Layer 2 and 3 interoperability.
Simply put, 5G LAN uses 5G technology to group and build groups of terminals to form a LAN network. When using 5G cell phones, have you ever noticed that even if you and your friends are close together (even face to face), your phone cannot search each other?

After the read about these 55 different types of antennas, you will learn about the different types of antennas with examples and their use.
As an important part of wireless communication systems, the antenna plays an irreplaceable role. In our life, there are many types of wireless communication requirements, such as long-distance wireless communication, short-distance wireless communication, satellite wireless communication, microwave wireless communication, cell phone wireless communication, point-to-point wireless communication, point-to-face wireless communication, and so on.
Different wireless communications requirements correspond to the use of different types of antenna wireless communication frequency bands, and different wireless communication systems, so it is necessary to use different types of antennas.
The design and selection of different types of antennas are an important part of designing a wireless transceiver for RF systems. A good RF wireless antenna system can make the communication distance the best state. The size of the same type of antenna is proportional to the wavelength of the RF signal. The lower the signal frequency, the larger the antenna needed.

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

What is Wize Technology?
What is the wize technology of Low Power Wide Area Network (LPWAN) technology?
The development of wireless communication network technology has driven the development of
scaled-up networking for thing-connected networks, which is an inherent development need of
Low Power Wide Area Network (LPWAN).
Wize definition
Wize technology is a Low Power Wide Area Network (LPWAN) technology derived from the
European standard EN-13757 Wireless M-bus. Wize is an IoT standard defined by the Wize
Consortium and is mainly oriented to applications such as wireless metering, smart cities, and
industrial IoT.
Wize technology works in the 169 MHz band, which is a license-free band in Europe. Due to its
use of a low-frequency band with long wavelengths, strong building or obstacle penetration, and
reduced path loss transmission distances of up to 20 km.
The Wize technology protocol is bi-directional, sending and receiving messages of up to 246
bytes and allowing firmware updates to be made remotely to network devices.
Because Wize transmits short messages, devices only need to be turned on for a few seconds per
day and have a battery life of up to 20 years. In addition, Wize technology features end-to-end
encryption to ensure the highest level of security.
What are the Wize technology key technical features?
The frequency band range is 169.4 MHz-169.475 MHz, with a total bandwidth of 75 kHz;

batteries (AA, A, or C) can power remote meter reading equipment for 15-20 years;
The protocol mechanism allows scheduling and execution of device firmware updates via
broadcast radio.
History of Wize technlogy
ERMES (European Radio Messaging System) is a European universal radio paging standard
developed by ETSI (European Telecommunications Standards Institute) in 1990, using the 169
MHz radio frequency band.
In 2005, the Conference of European Postal and Telecommunications Authorities (CEPT) and it's
Electronic Communications Committee (ECC) decided to allocate the frequency to other new use
cases, including remote meter reading.
The ISM 169 MHz radio spectrum in Europe is open and license-free and can be used as a
license-free band for short-range devices.
In 2005, the WM-Bus protocol was released (aka EN13757-4, 433 MHz, and 868 MHz).
Suez developed an AMI infrastructure for smart water meters based on the 169 MHz frequency,
which started to be deployed in Europe.
In 2008, Suez released the first wireless module for remote water metering at 169 MHz.
In 2012, GRDF decided to select the 169 MHz frequency band for its project and made significant
improvements.
In 2013, the first edition of the AFNOR (French Association for Standardization) Guide for Gas
Applications was released
2014-2015, High performance 169MHz multichannel modem based on SDR (Software Defined
Radio).
Telecom grade infrastructure, water, and gas meters
2017, Wize Alliance releases Wize Protocol 1.0.
AFNOR Water and Gas Metering Application Guide released.
Wize Alliance Link established - CEN TC294
In 2018, EN13757/2018 is released.
2019, Wize Alliance releases Wize Protocol 1.1.
2020, large-scale deployment of Wize gas and water meters in Europe, with approximately 10
million to date
Wize Alliance

international players from the industrial and utility sectors to support the implementation of a
long-range WAN technology called Wize technology.
Wireless metering of water and gas meters was the starting point for the start of the consortium,
thanks to the business expertise of the founding members of SUEZ, Sagemcom, and GRDF.
The network using Wize technology connects more than 9 million devices worldwide and
continues to expand, notably through the rollout of 11 million GRDF smart gas meters.
Various causes have been brought to scale, such as energy or water smart metering (AMR), waste
collection, air monitoring, etc.
The goal of the Wize Alliance is to ensure the stability and sustainability of Wize technology
through technology export and entry into new markets.
How is Wize net market?
2018, 3+ million devices, 15 countries, 500 cities
2019, 9+ million devices, 15 countries, 500 cities
10+ million devices, 15 countries, and 10,000 cities by June 2020
What are the Wize technology applications?
Wize technology applications in Water
Smart gas meters & smart water meters have transformed the relationship between Suez and its
customers by eliminating the need to schedule meter readings and by basing bills on actual
consumption.
In addition, customers can check their daily water consumption online and receive email or SMS
alerts in case of leaks or over-consumption. They can also monitor energy costs by tracking the
cost of hot water for public sanitation.
By monitoring delivered water volumes, and abnormalities (leaks, backflows) in real-time, smart
meters can manage operating revenues for public water services, often improving overall water
network performance.
Governments use water data management to achieve economic and environmental benefits.
Thanks to smart water meters governments are able to adjust billing frequency based on
seasonal or social pricing and control various flow consumption in buildings to protect water
resources. It can also help governments monitor housing occupancy rates and analyze activity in
the tourism or economic sectors.
Automatic remote water disconnection
Hydrelis proposes a solution to automatically and remotely shut off the water supply in a building
in the event of a leak, which Suez uses in its ON'Connect™ solution.
The device prevents suspected leaks in real-time and automatically issues alerts to mitigate water
damage.
In addition, automatic and remote management of the building's water supply based on usage
(weekends, evenings, holidays, etc.) enables consumers to reduce water usage and cut costs by
up to 30 percent.
Chlorine Sensor Monitoring
The Wize chlorine sensor monitors chlorine levels in water in real-time.

Because the water flowing through the pipes is not fresh, the water must be treated with
chlorine to prevent bacterial invasion. However, excess chlorine can be harmful to health if
ingested, so water utilities must control the amount of chlorine in the water.
Hydrant Monitoring - Fire hydrants are critical in cities and must always be in good working order
when a fire occurs, which requires regular maintenance and management.
In addition, hydrants are prone to theft, and AllWize proposes a solution that measures water
flow sensors inside hydrants connected to the water company's back office, allowing real-time
monitoring of hydrants for illegal use or leak detection.
Audible Data Logger Leak Detection
Sewerin and Seba developed an acoustic monitoring sensor that uses a 169 MHz (Wize)
frequency to detect leaks in real-time.
The logger is installed in the underground water supply network and records noise and compares
it to measured data, signaling a leak when a change in data is detected.
Wize technology applications in Energy
Energy Gas Metering
The objectives of GRDF's smart metering project are to
a) Improve customer satisfaction - automatic and daily reading of gas consumption data
b) Improve energy management - increase the frequency of delivery of consumption data
c) Optimize network operations - modernize and improve the performance of the gas distribution
network
The new smart gas meter provides useful information such as daily consumption, consumption
alerts, and comparison systems. For local authorities and property owners, it provides access to
regional or house building aggregated and anonymous data.
Gas network monitoring and energy collector
AllWize and Naturgy propose a gas network monitoring (GNM) system connected to the Wize
technology network.
This device allows Naturgy to remotely monitor working parameters (flow, pressure, leaks, etc.)
at a low cost.
The system is designed to help Naturgy perform predictive maintenance of the network, improve
the performance of the gas network and prevent energy fraud. In addition, GNM is equipped
with thin-film thermoelectric harvesting technology, which exploits the temperature difference
between the gas and the room temperature.
Converting thermal energy to electrical energy can power the entire system, including sensors
and Wize communications, thus enabling IoT devices to be autonomous.
Other gas use cases, such as riser pressure drop detection, detection of gas manhole covers
during operation, pipeline cathodic protection monitoring, the connection of gas shut-off valves,
methane, carbon monoxide, smoke detection, etc.
Wize technology applications in Waste

for the Internet of Things. Sensors are placed inside waste collection bins and are able to
measure their fill rate in real-time through ultrasound and infrared light.
The configuration of these sensors depends on the type of waste collection container (organic
waste, paper, glass, etc.) and its volume and configuration.
Thanks to these sensors, waste collection and collection routes are optimized and the number of
trucks on the road is reduced, meaning less labor and CO2 emissions.
This information is sometimes analyzed together with other data, such as traffic, weather
forecasts, or data collected from other connected utilities (water or gas consumption).
Dumpster Monitoring
AllWize has developed a solution to connect bins to the Wize network: the Wize bin monitoring
system. The networked bins monitor how many waste households throw away and whether they
comply with local recycling policies, a system called "Pay as you throw".
Air Quality Monitoring
AllWize has developed an inexpensive solution called the Wize Air Quality Monitor: a compact air
quality monitoring station installed throughout the city, along with a set of advanced cloud
models to map air quality as accurately as possible.
This connected system can help cities establish pollution reduction mechanisms and policies.
The solution includes PM1, PM2.5, and PM10 sensors for particle suspension.
NOx, SO2, and O3 sensors for gas concentrations.
Temperature, pressure, humidity sensors, and microphones.
The solution is connected to a dashboard configured with alarms.
Wize technology applications in Smart City
Urban Irrigation
AllWize's Wize Irrigation System Monitor remotely controls irrigation in parks and public gardens
based on soil moisture. The solution reduces water waste by watering plants only when needed.
In addition, the solution can detect leaks in real-time.
Street Light Maintenance
A simple sensor from AllWize is mounted to each street light to automatically detect street light
pole failures. With the Wize Street Lighting Maintenance solution, maintenance companies can
remotely know which street lights to replace, increasing efficiency and safety.
Street Lighting Control
AllWize's Wize Street Lighting Monitor is installed on street light poles and controls when street
lights are turned on and off and applies a dimming schedule based on natural light, which can
reduce the city's electric bill and reduce energy waste. Streetlights account for a large portion
(about 40%) of a city's electricity bill, and in many cases, turning them on during the day wastes a
significant amount of power.

wireless access network through LAN modems and Gateway.
Wize Devices are connected to the wide area wireless network via LAN modems, and then the
Gateway (Gateway) is connected to the IP protocol network via WAN (wide area network, such as
cellular network 3G/4G) to connect to the server.
What are the Wize operators and networking modes?
Wize technology offers three types of networking: first, private network; second, hybrid network;
and third, operational network.
A private network is one where the devices, gateways, and servers are owned and operated by
the user. The hybrid network is where the devices and gateways are owned by the subscriber and
the network is operated by the Wize operator.
An operational network is one in which the gateway, server, and network are all owned by the
operator.
With the opening of the original 169MHz paging service in Europe in 2005, Wize technology
gained access to the wireless spectrum resources for development and more opportunities for
more IoT applications.
Wize technology is not starting from scratch, but based on the existing WM-BUS standard, its
industrial ecology is relatively mature, and Wize technology has the foundation for stable and
sustainable development.
The Wize Alliance uses this as a basis to expand more industry applications and promote the
development of Wize technology.
