1 Internet of Things: connecting everything
2 Internet of Things: connecting everything Technologies to connect your products to the internet We live in a new age. A time when everything and everyone is connected and smart devices can communicate with us and each other. This is the age of the Internet of Things. Think of a refrigerator that knows when your milk has expired and automatically orders a new bottle, or a water faucet that automatically detects leaks, shuts off the water supply and then contacts the water company. The developments are moving fast. In 2016, 6.4 billion devices all over the world were connected to the internet. That was 30% more than in According to the research agency Gartner, this number will grow to more than 20 billion by the year At the moment, many organisations are experimenting with connecting their products, for example because they want more insight into their usage or because they are looking to realise more efficient processes, save energy or maximise usability. What is the best way to go about this? Which technology should you choose? How can you use this technology to gather exactly the information you need? In this whitepaper, we will explain the technological background of connectivity and outline the specifications, possible applications and pros and cons of WLAN, Bluetooth Low Energy, LoRa, cellular M2M and other technologies. You can use this information to make your plastic product smarter and take full advantage of the Internet of Things. 2
3 1 What is connectivity? Connectivity means that objects are connected. Said object can be a smartphone or a satellite navigation system, but also a razor blade stand or even a cow in a field. In the context of the Internet of Things, connectivity means that objects connected to the internet communicate with each other. How it works Here is how this communication works. The object contains sensors that measure certain values, e.g. weight, speed, temperature or quantity. A processor then processes this data and sends it via the internet to another device, which then executes or controls certain actions based on the data it receives. The possibilities of the Internet of Things The Internet of Things offers limitless possibilities. Think of, for example: Real-time inventory monitoring and automatic reorders; Real-time location tracking for vehicles or objects; Executing predefined tasks in a predetermined situation: e.g. automatically cutting off the water supply to a field after three days of rain; Machines that learn and adapt based on usage data; Monitoring consumers purchasing behaviour and gaining insight into where and how often certain consumers order products; Insight into a product s costs, energy consumption or lifecycle; Updating software via the internet, so any faults can be resolved in the field. Example: elevator maintenance Sensors in an elevator measure how long it takes for the doors to close. If this process is faster or slower than usual, the elevator might not be performing optimally. The elevator sends this information to a special system that determines the right course of action based on the data, e.g. I will monitor the situation. If it gets worse, I will schedule maintenance for next week. For now, the elevator can continue to the third floor, because there is someone waiting up there. This method of preventative maintenance reduces the occurrence of malfunctions. 3
4 2 Seven technologies to connect your product to the internet There are several technologies that you can use to connect your product to the internet, so it can communicate with other connected devices. In this chapter, you can read more about connecting devices via WLAN, Bluetooth Low Energy, cellular M2M and the four main types of LPWAN: LoRa, Sigfox, NB-IoT and LTE-M.

5 1 Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) WLAN, commonly called WiFi, is a wireless network that is mainly used for internet connections at home or in the workplace. The network runs on the globally licence-free 2.4 and 5 GHz frequency bands. The relatively high bandwidth allows users to send large quantities of data in a short time. Its range is circa 32 metres, which means WLAN is not suitable for longrange connectivity. 2 Bluetooth Low Energy Like WLAN, Bluetooth is a short-range solution. Bluetooth operates on licence-free frequencies between 2.4 and GHz and it can switch between different frequencies to limit interference from other devices. This technology is energy efficient, which also limits the available bandwidth. This means users can only transport small quantities of data. Bluetooth is perfectly suited to link small electronic devices, e.g. connecting a smartphone to a wireless speaker to play music. 3 Cellular M2M Cellular M2M (machine-to-machine) uses radio waves in the same way that a phone uses a SIM card. The range depends on the presence of transmitter masts; from a mast, the range is 16 kilometres. Because of the large density of transmitter masts, this technology offers global coverage. You need a SIM card to connect an object to cellular M2M. Once connected, the object will retain its connection through roaming. Audio, text messages and data can be transmitted continuously, which means the energy requirements are relatively high. This makes cellular M2M mainly suitable for wearable and easily chargeable devices. The costs per minute or MB can be high, because you use a different network. Furthermore, Bluetooth can be used in combination with a mobile phone that serves as a gateway. If the right app is installed on the phone, devices can exchange data with the internet via the phone. This method known as Bluetooth Low Energy is characterised by its extremely low energy requirements and its relatively low implementation costs. Many common devices use this technology, from toothbrushes and washing machines to kitchen appliances and even toys. 5
6 Low Power Wide Area Network (LPWAN) Information is transmitted between battery-powered devices using the wireless LPWAN network. LPWAN is suitable for long-range connections and offers excellent coverage, even in hardto-reach areas and underground. The downside is its slow data transfer rate. LPWAN utilises advanced energy-saving technology. The three main types of LPWAN are NB-IoT, LoRa and Sigfox. It is important to consider which network is available in which countries. 10K The number of devices controlled by each cell 10 bytes The data sent per hour 10 years How long the battery will last LPWAN devices of the future 10 km The minimal range $10 The cost of the device 5 NarrowBand Internet of Things (NB-IoT) NB-IoT is comparable to LTE (commonly referred to as the 4G network). The technology utilises the advantages of the 4G network: infrastructure, range and security. This technology is characterised by its excellent coverage and wide range, even underground. NB-IoT can connect millions of devices to each other. A downside is the low bandwidth, which means it is not possible to transmit large quantities of data in a short time. On the other hand, the battery will last a long time; up to fifteen years with a usage of 200 bytes per day. The technology makes use of an existing network and licensed frequencies, such as 3G and 4G, which makes it impossible for others to interfere on the network. There is also no legal limit on data usage. NB-IoT was designed to keep the costs per module as low as possible. These costs are expected to drop below $2 per module in the future. Because of its small memory (a cheap PSRAM variant) and its single antenna, NB- IoT is cheaper than cellular M2M. There is no need for full duplex features (transmitting and receiving data at the same time, e.g. as used by a phone to allow you to talk and listen simultaneously). Because this is not required for NB-IoT, the costs are lower than those of 4G. 4 LTE-M LTE-M, also known as LTE Cat M1, is a variant of the existing 4G networks and it is comparable to NB-IoT. Compared to the other LTE networks, LTE-M is available for a wider bandwidth, although it offers reduced coverage. LTE-M is designed to frequently transmit data at a lower speed than what is common for 4G networks. The advantage of LTE-M is that it can provide real-time information. This technology is currently very popular in the United States. 6
7 Long Range (LoRa) 6 6 Sigfox LoRa connects battery-powered devices to each other via a regional, national or global network at a low cost. This does require a network point, like WLAN or cellular M2M. LoRa has a range of 16 kilometres, even in the wilderness and underground. The technology utilises the licence-free ISM network. A downside of LoRa is the possible interference from other users on the network. There is also a legal limit on the data usage: you may not transmit more than 12 bytes per hour. Sigfox can be used to exchange small quantities of data without frequent communication. Sigfox offers a range of 40 kilometres and very low energy consumption. In the stand-by mode, two AA batteries will last for two years. Like LoRa, Sigfox utilises the licence-free ISM network. Others can also use this network for free. This negatively affects the performance of this technology, e.g. by slowing down the data transfer rate. Data usage is legally limited to 12 bytes per hour. NB-IoT, LoRa, Sigfox or LTE-M? Out of these four WPLAN technologies, NB-IoT is currently in the lead. NB-IoT offers better coverage, no limitations to output, the highest download and upload rates (up to ten times higher than LoRa and Sigfox), the longest battery life, a relatively cheap module and exceptional security. NB-IoT also utilises the existing LTE network. Contrary to LoRa and Sigfox, NB- IoT does not require a new network infrastructure made up of gateways, masts and repeaters. LTE-M is comparable to NB-IoT. It offers a larger bandwidth, so you can transmit more data, at the cost of slightly limited coverage. Another advantage of NB-IoT and LTE-M is that there are several LTE network providers, including AT&T and Vodafone. Sigfox and LoRa only have one provider each. Sigfox is a company that developed its own form of LPWAN, while LoRa is supported by the members of the LoRa Alliance. 7
8 3 Choosing the right technology for your application All connectivity technologies have their respective pros and cons. If you want to know which technology is best suited for your application, you should first determine exactly what you want to know. If you have a courier service and want to track your drivers, a WPLAN connection is a good option. If you want to enable consumers to order new razor blades with a single press of a button once their current blade becomes dull, it is better to go for a continuous connection using cellular M2M. What to look out for when choosing a technology? 1 Design The size of the required batteries may affect your product s design. A device with a cellular connection and a ten-year lifecycle, for example, may need three AAA batteries. LPWAN requires a much smaller watch battery, which offers more design options. 2 Costs Hardware, e.g. a SIM card, and software cost money. From the perspective of hardware costs, there are virtually no differences between the various technologies. If you go for cellular M2M with a SIM card, you will need a data provider, which comes with its own costs. LoRa, Bluetooth, Sigfox and WLAN utilise existing networks, so you do not have to pay data costs. Of course, the requisite infrastructure for these networks has to be available. If that is not the case, creating this infrastructure will lead to more costs. A provider may also charge you for e.g. the maintenance or expansion of the network. These costs are often billed per device per year. 8
9 3 Security Good data security is becoming increasingly important, especially when you want to transmit large quantities of (confidential) data. A cellular M2M connection offers many advantages in this regard. A SIM card is technically a microprocessor that mostly handles encryption and decryption. This encryption makes it impossible for unauthorised third parties to access the data. The user can turn a device off remotely and access or block the SIM card. If you want to transmit highly confidential data, it is advisable to use a private Access Point Name (APN). This means data is only transferred via a private network connection. LoRa also encrypts its data traffic, while Sigfox does not. Out of the LPWAN technologies, NB-IoT is the most secure because it utilises both network- and device-side authentication. Furthermore, NB-IoT encrypts the data traffic between devices on the network. 4 Future-proof Technological developments occur at a dazzling rate. Ask yourself whether the technology and application you choose today will still meet your requirements in ten years time. Perhaps you will want to collect more or other relevant data by then. Will the technology of your choice let you do that? 5 Location Finally, the location is an important consideration. Not every technology is available everywhere yet. WLAN is available in virtually every country in the world. According to the research agency Statista, the number of public hotspots will grow from 90 million in 2016 to more than 500 million by Devices with Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) can be used anywhere in the world. BLE does not rely on any existing infrastructure, since the devices form their own network once they are connected. LoRa is available in parts of North and South America, Africa, Europe, Asia and Australia, although the bandwidths differ per location. Europe uses MHz and North America uses MHz, while the frequency in Asia differs per country (ranging from 40 MHz to 925 MHz). Sigfox is available in most European countries, as well as in Australia, Japan, Tunisia, Oman, Madagascar, Laos, South Africa, Iran, Brazil, Argentina, Colombia, Mexico and the United States. NB-IoT and LTE-M utilise existing 3G and 4G networks, which offer virtually global coverage. LTE-M is very popular in the United States. 9
