Abstract:
LPWANs are an attractive IoT communication option. IoT communication networks need wide coverage and low power consumption. LPWAN technology solutions meet IoT requirements like long communication range, energy efficiency, scalability, and low cost, but network performance is a concern.
With so many LPWAN technologies, evaluation is growing. Recent LPWAN technology comparison studies have focused on technical specifications rather than network deployment scenario measurement results.
We believe an experimental comparative evaluation deepens the comparison discussion. This paper proposes an experimental coverage and energy-efficiency comparison of LoRaWAN and SigFox, two emerging LPWAN technologies in sub-GHz Industrial, Scientific, and Medical (ISM) frequency bands.
First, coverage and energy-efficiency were identified as LPWAN application design goals. Second, by proposing test performance to evaluate those goals, where extensive measurements were made in network deployments.
Finally, by highlighting the main performance findings in both networks for comparison. LoRaWAN outperformed SigFox in fair-weather coverage, packet delivery rate (PDR 80%), and radio strength signal (RSSI -110 dBm). Under the same conditions, Sigfox sends 20% more messages with better energy efficiency.
