The term Internet of Things (IoT) has gained enormous popularity with the explosion of wireless sensor networks, smart meters, home automation devices, and wearable electronics. The IoT spans long-range outdoor networks such as the smart grid and municipal lighting, as well as shorter-range indoor networks that enable the connected home and residential security systems.
Numerous companies have introduced innovative solutions for the IoT market that provide security, status, and other convenient services. A connected system architecture comprises a number of wireless nodes ranging from simple remote control devices to complex wireless networks featuring a gateway to connect to the Internet. These networks can also provide localized system intelligence and cloud services. In this article, we will discuss low-power, long-range wireless connectivity in the widely used sub-GHz band.
