Internet of things (IoT) changes significantly the requirements for connectivity, mainly
with regards to long battery life, low device cost, low deployment cost, extended coverage
and support for a massive number of devices. Driven from these requirements, several
different cellular and non-cellular low power wide area network (LPWAN) solutions are
emerging and competing for IoT business and the overall connectivity market. Motivated by
this, in this thesis, we review and compare the pros and the cons for 2 specific
LPWANs,LoraWan and Narrowband IoT, as well as, we discuss their suitability for different
IoT applications. Finally, we will simulate the LoraWan with the help of Matlab platform and
compare it to a an existing simulation of Narrowband IoT,to see the differences.
