What this episode covers

Julian Studer, CEO and founder of LORIOT, discusses the growth of IoT and LPWAN technologies in 2022. He explains that while the market is booming, growth has been linear rather than exponential, driven by use cases in metering, agriculture, and smart cities. Studer highlights the dominance of LoRa and NB-IoT for low-power, long-range applications and identifies complexity and lack of expertise as major industry challenges.

    Ep. 5 | LoRaWAN: The Things Network and LoRa Alliance Talk Open IoT

    Wienke Giezeman, co-founder and CEO of The Things Network, and Dave Kjendal, CTO/COO of Senet and LoRa Alliance board member, discuss the LoRaWAN protocol for open IoT. They explain why LoRaWAN’s low power, spread spectrum modulation, and lack of vendor lock-in make it superior to NB-IoT and Sigfox for wide-area applications like agriculture and smart cities. The conversation highlights the technical architecture, including secure elements like the Microchip ATECC608, and the business case for open standards versus proprietary 'walled gardens.'

    An Interview with Richard Ginus

    Richard Ginus of TWTG explains the mechanics of LoRaWAN, detailing how chirp spread spectrum modulation enables long-range, low-power communication for sensor networks. He discusses the trade-offs between LoRa, Sigfox, and NB-IoT, covering regulatory constraints like the 1% duty cycle in Europe and the architecture of gateways, network servers, and application servers. Ginus also shares practical insights on battery life optimization, adaptive data rates, and the use of indoor solar energy harvesting modules.

    272: Stick 'Em on Whales

    Chris Gammell of Contextual Electronics Consulting joins hosts Chris White and Alicia White to discuss the state of the embedded industry, the shift towards rapid 'Lego prototyping' using cheap dev boards, and the challenges of IoT device management. The conversation covers the longevity of the ESP32, the complexities of Wi-Fi provisioning and OTA updates, and the rise of LoRaWAN for long-range sensor networks. They also touch on career transitions, including Chris Gammell's move to iOS development and Alicia White's work with autonomous robots.

    5G and IoT: What Will It Take for Them to Get Along?

    Thomas Keller, Director of Platforms and Core Technology at u-blox, discusses the challenges of integrating low-power IoT devices with 5G networks. He explains that while 5G was designed for high capacity and low latency, the industry currently relies on LTE-based technologies like Cat M1 and NB-IoT for IoT, with 'RedCap' (Reduced Capability) devices emerging as a transitional 5G standard. Keller highlights the tension between network operators needing to support legacy LTE infrastructure and the long-term shift to 5G Standalone, noting that true low-power 5G IoT optimization will take several specification releases to mature.
