From time to time developers ask questions about the content of the IoT M2M Cookbook. This time the question involves 5G and I explain why I’m not currently writing on this subject. Question about the IoT M2M Cookbook Hello Harald, I’d like to buy the IoT Cookbook. Are new networks like NB-IOT and LTE-CAT-M covered? […]
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, […]
The IoT M2M Cookbook contains a simulation of a dual F antenna for cellular. This antenna has been customized several times by customers, or by us on behalf of customers. The Gillette order button using this base design and described in the book supports NB-IoT, LTE-M and GSM from about 750 MHz with 960 MHz […]
In order to save development and approval costs, the antenna, frequency bands, ground plane size and housing should be carefully designed at the beginning of development. If the company lacks in-house experience with radio, antennas and worldwide approval, we recommend consulting an external consultant. The following text is intended to make you think. I use […]
On Dec. 12, the world’s first NB-IoT Christmas party with integrated NB-IoT seminar will take place in Tilburg in the Netherlands. Agenda (PDF): IoT2Learn-agenda-hotel-arrival IoT2Learn at a glance NB-IoT SIM cards to test for the guests on the day before the seminar www.iot2learn.com Surveying of your antennas free of charge after arrangement on return loss […]
The Germans are the masters of long words and long sentences with the verb at the end (frustrating simultaneous translators the world over). German datasheets are 30% longer, or in a font size so small they are hard to read. But, Germans are capable of short stories as well. To cut a long story short, […]
The LoRaWAN software stack is based on plain Aloha. Plain Aloha is a model that describes the typical package loss due to collisions of uplink transmissions in an unsynchronised communication system. With a LoRaWAN system, the model shows 82% package loss at maximum throughput. On top of this we get additional package loss during LoRaWAN […]
In Patras, Greece, developers are already working on a smart city technology development using NB-IoT. But how can they avoid the need for a SIM card and its subscription? Let’s consider the technical proposition. Technical needs Smart parking sensors are sending one status update message of 10 bytes two to eight times per hour. 30 […]
NB-IoT module on Arduino shield – text strings to USB Any akorIoT radio adapter consists of a cellular (NB-IoT module or other cellular module), a GNSS module and four sensors. In addition there is a SIM card. In summary there are seven serial interfaces to test. Our test software has 250 lines and two “include […]
Deutsche Telekom AG has its NB-IoT network live in several major German cities (Berlin, Bochum, Bonn, Chemnitz, Dortmund, Duisburg, Düsseldorf, Erfurt, Essen, Gelsenkirchen, Cologne, Leipzig, Leverkusen and Mannheim. There are now no longer any obstacles to developing and using NB-IoT applications. akorIoT with NB-IoT + one of 33 STM32 Nucleo or Arduino UNO = your […]
