South Korea’s largest mobile operator, SK Telecom, will deploy a nationwide low-power wide area (LPWA) network in 2016, to support Internet of Things (IoT) services, presumably using the LoRa platform.
That decision is, in part, a reminder of how hard it is to create a single, all-purpose network supporting every important application, optimally.
The decision also is recognition that requirements for IoT apps are likely to rely more on power efficiency than bandwidth.
