Why LoRa will be the Likely Winner in Lightweight WAN Battle
Technically the various WAN technologies are variations with trade-offs between range, power consumption and data rate. So what makes LoRa special?
There are several alternative technologies being promoted as lightweight wide area networks (WANs). These include LoRa, Sigfox, Ingenu and Weightless along with some other radio standards that, to a greater or lesser degree, cover the same technical ground. It seems unlikely all of these will survive. Which will emerge as the winner?
