LPWA - low power wide area, is a term used to describe a group of technologies that possess

affordable chipsets and networks, extended battery life (often longer than ten years), restricted

data communications throughput capacity, and wide area connectivity features. LPWA

technologies are complementary to existing short range and cellular network technologies, but

are associated with lower costs and better power consumption.

Most Internet of Things (IoT) and machine-to-machine (M2M) services are dependent on

licensed satellite, cellular and wireline networks for wide area connectivity. Cellular networks, in

particular, have dominated this space in the recent past. However, cellular networks consume a

lot of power. Moreover, they are riddled with complex protocols that lower battery life. This

renders them expensive for many low bandwidth IoT applications. LPWA, on the other hand,

typically rely on unlicensed frequencies and have low data rates. Research indicates that the costper-module of LPWA could lower from USD 5-20 to USD 1-2 in volume quantities.

Although non-existent in early 2013, LPWA is presently one of the fastest-growing components

of IoT. This exponential growth is a result of the wide application scope facilitated by an

evolving technological space.
