What is LTE Cat M1 technology?
LTE Cat M1 is a new low-power wide area (LPWA, low-power wide-area) cellular technology specifically designed for Internet of Things (IoT) and machine-to-machine (M2M) communications.
It has been developed for low- to medium-data-rate applications supporting upload/download data rates of less than 1 Mbps and can be used in either half-or full-duplex mode.
LTE CAT M1 operates using existing LTE networks, but unlike NB-IoT (which operates using unused spectrum or spectrum located in protected bands) LTE CAT M1 operates in the same LTE frequency bands that are used in cellular applications.
One of its advantages is that it can switch from one cell site to another, which allows the technology to be used in mobile applications;
Whereas NB-IoT does not allow mobile switching from one cell site to another, and can therefore only be used in fixed applications, i.e. applications that are limited to the area covered by a single cell site.
As LTE Cat M1 technology can co-exist with 2G, 3G, and 4G mobile networks, it has the advantage of all the security and privacy features of a mobile network, such as support for user identity confidentiality, entity authentication, secrecy, data integrity, and the ability to authenticate mobile devices.
