NB-IoT PCB Antennas

Internet of Things (IoT) refers to the connection of various physical devices through the Internet to achieve the exchange of information and intelligent control. There are many kinds of IoT technologies, one of which is the band Internet of Things (NB-IoT) based on cellular networks.

NB-IoT technology is a low-power, wide-coverage, mass-connection IoT technology that can provide reliable data transmission services for a variety of low-rate, low-frequency, and low-cost IoT applications by utilizing the existing cellular network infrastructure.

NB-IoT technology is part of the LTE (Long Term Evolution) standard released by the 3GPP (Third Generation Partnership Programme) in 2016 and is one of the key components of the 5G (Fifth Generation Mobile Communications) standard.

NB-IoT technology has several features:

Wide coverage:

Compared to traditional GSM networks, NB-IoT technology can provide 20dB of coverage gain, and one base station can cover a range of 10km, which is suitable for underground, indoor, and other weak signal scenarios.

Low power consumption:

NB-IoT technology introduces a power-saving mode and extended idle period, which allows the terminal to be dormant most of the time, waking up and communicating with the base station only when needed, thus reducing power consumption and extending battery life.

Multiple connections: NB-IoT technology can support 100,000 devices in each cell, meeting the demand for large-scale connectivity for IoT services.

Low-cost:

NB-IoT technology requires only 180kHz bandwidth and can be deployed directly on existing GSM, UMTS, or LTE networks, reducing network construction operation and maintenance costs.

At the same time, the chips and modules of NB-IoT terminals are also simpler and cheaper, which can reduce equipment costs.

High-reliability:

NB-IoT technology can provide carrier-grade quality of service and security, ensuring data accuracy and integrity.

Applications of NB-IoT

NB-IoT technology can be applied in various industries and fields, such as:

Smart City:

NB-IoT technology can be used in scenarios such as smart lighting, smart parking, smart bins, smart firefighting, etc. to achieve optimal management of urban resources and energy saving and emission reduction.

Smart Agriculture:

NB-IoT technology can be used for monitoring and controlling parameters such as soil humidity, temperature, and light to achieve precise irrigation and fertilization of crops.

Smart Healthcare:

NB-IoT technology can be used to remotely monitor patients’ heart rate, blood pressure, blood sugar, and other physiological indicators to achieve effective allocation of medical resources and timely treatment.

Smart Home:

NB-IoT technology can be used to control air conditioning, lighting, curtains, and other devices in the home to achieve a comfortable and safe home environment.
