低功耗广域网技术提供远距离通信，从而实现新型服务。有几种解决方案; LoRaWAN可以说是最常用的。它承诺在户外物联网应用中实现无处不在的连接，同时保持网络结构和管理简单。近几个月来，这项技术受到了网络运营商和解决方案提供商的广泛关注。然而，这项技术有其局限性，需要清楚地了解，以避免过高的期望和幻灭。本文提供了LoRaWAN的功能和局限性的公正和公平的概述。我们在用例的上下文中讨论这些问题，并列出开放的研究和开发问题。
Low-power wide area networking technology offers long-range communication, which enables new types of services. Several solutions exist; LoRaWAN is arguably the most adopted. It promises ubiquitous connectivity in outdoor IoT applications, while keeping network structures and management simple. This technology has received a lot of attention in recent months from network operators and solution providers. However, the technology has limitations that need to be clearly understood to avoid inflated expectations and disillusionment. This article provides an impartial and fair overview of the capabilities and limitations of LoRaWAN. We discuss those in the context of use cases, and list open research and development questions.
