Enquiry for a smart waste container We have already developed many antennas for metal containers on GSM, UMTS, NB-IoT, LTE-M, LoRaWAN and Sigfox. For us the radio technology does not make a big difference. The akorIoT SensPRO is already a reference design for such a smart bin. Request for the smart waste bin Hi Harald, […]
Which is better: UDP, TCP, MQTT, CoaP or LWM2M? Q: Our application is an asset tracker on NB-IoT, LTE-M, GPRS and GNSS. We need to send the current position of the tracking device to a remote server after a particular interval. I am looking for the LWM2M protocol which consumes less energy & headers added […]
The grey map with the blue triangles shows the cellular base stations in the Kirchheim area. This map is available online from the Federal Network Agency in Germany. In Germany the locations of the cellular base stations are publicly accessible for everybody. The base stations vary in height from about 5 m up to 48 […]
How your wireless IoT idea can become a real product The Timeline: May 2018: Inquiry Tracker with harald.naumann (at) lte-modem.com February 2019: Order for development with akorIoT Group August 2019: Pre-series/ field test order with akorIoT Group Basis = akorIoT SensPRO http://www.gsm-modem.de/M2M/m2m-componets/akoriot-senspro-reference-design-nbiot-ltem/ Radio modules = Quectel BG96 Multimode NB-IoT, LTEM, GSM GNSS Module= Quectel L76L, […]
Questions and answers about NB-IoT antennas are given below. This customer bought my IoT M2M Cookbook, built several NB-IoT PCB antennas based on the template in the book and needs some support. You can easily copy the NB-IoT / GSM antenna in the book into your own PCB design. However, as soon as the PCB […]
Another request for a custom PCB antenna for NB-IoT. Since we invested in NB-IoT early on, we can bring a lot of experience. Simply taking over a layout of an antenna for an unlicensed band like LoRaWAN (868 / 915 MHz) usually does not work. It may be sufficient for first tests but if the […]
Do you use antennas in your products? Do you compare data sheets? Do you have problems comparing? Are the antennas in your device not compliant with the data sheet? Are there problems with radio certification? Then I will be glad to help you, starting with the analysis of the data sheets all the way up […]
Why now NB-IoT instead of LoRaWAN or Sigfox? There are hundreds of reasons for NB-IoT and hundreds against LoRaWAN and Sigfox. Below is a typical example. The potential customer already prefers NB-IoT and we can deliver NB-IoT with fallback to GSM. In Germany there is no Sigfox Indoor in my city. In the three neighbouring […]
We received a request for an NB-IoT device in a matchbox. It is of course not an actual matchbox but similar in size. Small NB-IoT devices with batteries operating in the frequency range from 600 MHz to 1000 MHz are the premium class of IoT devices. I don’t want to mention the question and the […]
LPWAN for a small village – not in Gaul (Latin: Gallia) The year is 2019 Anno Domini, and cellular operators occupy all Hessian and a lot of them have imperfect indoor coverage in the basement of houses. Well, not entirely… One small village of indomitable Hessians plans to change it. However, how can Harald, Martin […]
