Amazon’s Sidewalk Unmasks Hidden Value Of Mesh Networks
The benefits of having devices that are nearly always connected has never been more obvious than it is today. In that regard, cellular networks and technologies like 5G have proven to be incredibly valuable. At the same time, there’s no denying that integrating cellular connectivity into every connected device we own isn’t a reasonable option for both practical and economic reasons. It’s simply too expensive and too challenging to do that. Various flavors of WiFi and even Bluetooth, of course, have also become an essential part of the connectivity fabric and are a great solution for many devices and applications. Read more
Satellite connectivity bridges gap to underserved IoT markets
Despite the massive roll-out of LoRaWAN® IoT terrestrial private and public networks in more than 160 countries, many regions remain unconnected and LoRaWAN network service providers have low or no economic return to invest in these remote areas. The satellite, running on LoRaWAN, also features Semtech’s Long Range Frequency Hoping Spread Spectrum new data rate (LR-FHSS), which was endorsed by the LoRa Alliance at end of 2020, offering a unique opportunity for terrestrial and satellite LoRaWAN Networks to collaborate in bringing ubiquitous coverage.

Delivering SATCOM With LoRa®
Low-cost and low-power satellite connectivity technology built directly with smart sensors will kick-start a second IoT revolution. With LoRa®, a device-to-Cloud platform built for applications requiring long range, low power, incorporated into satellites, smart sensors can enable two-way communications to and from satellites in Low Earth Orbit (LEO). LoRa can run on Very High Frequency (VHF) frequencies for uplink and downlink to satellites from the ground. Read more

IoT applications to improve senior care
The population of those aged 65 and over is growing faster than all other age groups. According to data from World Population Prospects, one in six people worldwide will be over the age of 65 by 2050, making up 16% of the global population. Seniors face increased challenges that may put them in harm’s way, because of social exclusion, the accelerating trend in reduced intergenerational living spurred by COVID-19, and residing in large, spread out communities. Caregivers, health care professionals and family members can better support the well-being of seniors and their ability to comfortably and more manageably live alone through the use of IoT technology.
