While the industry standards for the two types of low-power wide area network (LPWAN) technologies, NB-IoT (Narrow Band-Internet of Things) and LTE-M (LTE-MTC), were released along the latest version of the LTE Release 13 in mid-2016, only a total of six NB-IoT/LTE-M networks from five countries have commenced operations as of the first quarter of 2017. In comparison, the deployments of LPWANs using unlicensed spectrum have doubled over the past year. This indicates that the acceptance of this cellular-based IoT standards by global telecom operators has been lower than expected, according to Digitimes Research.
