PERFORMANCE COMPARISON licensed vs unlicensed
Sources: Mobile Experts, Beecham Research, 1NCE Analysis 32
LTE-M LoRa 10 1,000 10k 10M 100M Bytes/Hour Power Consumption Low Medium SigFox NB-IoT 1M
Licensed Unlicensed
The data capacity of unlicensed spectrum based connectivity standards like LoRa and SigFox is lower than that of NB-IoT or LTE-M. This is due to a limited number of messages that can be transmitted per day, especially in European networks. They are primarily designed to transport tens of bytes per hour rather than kilobytes, which allows them to consume less power than NB-IoT and LTE-M. But thanks to an optimized and lean modem architecture NB-IoT and LTE-M can support similar device lifetimes of up to 5 to 10 years as well.
