As IoT connectivity is growing rapidly worldwide, the LoRa Alliance is seizing the opportunity for LoRaWAN technology to become a globally ubiquitous, plug-and-play IoT connectivity method embedded into everyday objects and capable of delivering increasing value to users.
With the highest accessibility, most robust ecosystem, and widest, fastest-growing global adoption of any LPWAN IoT connectivity technology, LoRaWAN is quickly becoming an essential wireless technology for an increasingly intelligent, connected world. As with earlier technology revolutions in cellular, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, the LoRaWAN connectivity revolution is driving a new generation of devices, users and applications.
LoRaWAN achieves the highest accessibility by being built on an open-standard foundation, with the ecosystem offering many open-source implementations that accelerate time-to-market. Use of unlicensed frequency bands around the world also means that, like Wi-Fi, LoRaWAN can be deployed by anyone, not just a few big companies wealthy enough to afford spectrum licenses. LoRaWAN also has lower infrastructure build-out costs than other IoT connectivity technologies, with LoRaWAN gateways comparable in cost to Wi-Fi access points and LoRaWAN network servers so lightweight and low-cost that they can be bundled with the gateways.
