LPWA

Narrowband IoT (NB IoT) is a new way of communicating with smart devices that require small amounts of data, small power consumption, in hard to reach places. NB-IoT is a Low Power Wide Area Network (LPWAN) radio technology standard that has been developed to enable a wide range of devices and services to be connected using cellular telecommunications bands.

NB-IoT focuses specifically on indoor coverage, low cost, low device complexity, long battery life, and high density of connected devices in a single cell.
