From manufacturing and industrial IoT to smart vehicles, smart homes, and smart cities, 5G is transforming everything. The internet of everything is made possible by the enormous bandwidth, incredible speed, and low latency!
The needs of numerous IoT devices and apps can best be met by LPWANs (Cellular Low Power Wide Area Networks), which is where 5G can help.
A temperature reading from a device in a house or place of business, or a straightforward on/off application for a smart device or group of smart devices, are examples of huge IoT.
The US 5G IoT market accounted for $XX Billion in 2021 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2022 to 2030.
However, there are also a number of space entrepreneurs interested in using satellites for the Internet of Things. A number of satellite businesses have been marketing non-terrestrial networks as a way to link more people to the internet.
One of them is SatelIoT, which just revealed intentions to use a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket to launch its first operational nanosatellite early the following year.
A spacecraft that weighs less than 10 kilogrammes is referred to as a nanosatellite. The CEO and founder of SatelIoT hopes to launch five Low Earth Orbit (LEO) nanosatellites in the near future.
Any Internet of Things device that has a Release 17 compatible NB-IoT modem will be able to transfer data to the internet four times each day, according to the CEO.
In order to accommodate NB-IoT, which carves out very narrow bands (200 kHz) from spectrum already assigned for commercial phone and data services, the carriers will make use of SatelIoT’s service. SatelIoT does not have to lobby regulators for access to spectrum, in contrast to some satellite providers.
Originally a component of the LTE standard, Release 17 of the 5G standard added NB-IoT. According to the CEO, SatelIoT contributed to that release 17 times, which is more than any other satellite operator.
