到2020年，将有超过500亿台设备通过无线电通信连接起来。随着物联网（IoT）市场的快速增长，低功率广域网（LPWAN）已成为一种流行的低速率远程无线电通信技术。Sigfox、LoRa和NB-IoT是争夺大规模物联网部署的三种领先的LPWAN技术。本文对这些技术进行了全面的比较研究，这些技术可作为连接智能、自主和异构设备的有效解决方案。我们证明Sigfox和LoRa在电池寿命、容量和成本方面具有优势。同时，NB-IoT在延迟和服务质量方面具有优势。此外，我们还分析了这些LPWAN技术的物联网成功因素，并考虑了应用场景，并解释了哪种技术最适合每种场景。(C) 2018韩国通信与信息科学研究所（KICS）。Elsevier B.V.出版服务
By 2020, more than 50 billion devices will be connected through radio communications. In conjunction with the rapid growth of the Internet of Things (IoT) market, low power wide area networks (LPWAN) have become a popular low-rate long-range radio communication technology. Sigfox, LoRa, and NB-IoT are the three leading LPWAN technologies that compete for large-scale IoT deployment. This paper provides a comprehensive and comparative study of these technologies, which serve as efficient solutions to connect smart, autonomous, and heterogeneous devices. We show that Sigfox and LoRa are advantageous in terms of battery lifetime, capacity, and cost. Meanwhile, NB-IoT offers benefits in terms of latency and quality of service. In addition, we analyze the IoT success factors of these LPWAN technologies, and we consider application scenarios and explain which technology is the best fit for each of these scenarios.
