Decisions, Decisions – How to Approach Long-Range Wireless IoT

Tuesday, October 13, 2015
TIME: 2:00pm ET/11:00am PT

 

When it comes to enabling communication for long-range wireless IoT M2M applications, there are several ways to go. Using the example of smart metering, a utility might deploy an LPWA solution, which is known to be cost- and power-efficient for such low bandwidth needs. Alternatively, that same gas or water utility could use LTE to solve its smart metering communications needs. But how is a company to decide which technology to select as the communication engine behind its smart metering capability? What are the pros and cons of LTE and LPWA?


Altair Semiconductor is the leading provider of single-mode LTE chipsets. Playing a key role in realizing the vision of IoT, Altair offers disruptive LTE semiconductor solutions that make LTE a great choice for connecting the next several billions of things.


What Attendees will learn:

  • Pros and Cons of LTE for Long-range wireless IoT M2M applications
  • Pros and Cons of LPWA for Long-range wireless IoT M2M applications
  • Discussion of several application scenarios

Who should attend:

  • Network architects at Mobile and Fixed carriers
  • OEMs and ODMs
  • Carrier CIOs and CTOs
