A Low Power Wide Area Network (LPWAN) is a type of wireless communication technology designed for long-range connectivity with minimal power consumption. It is ideal for connecting devices that require infrequent data transmission, such as sensors and smart meters, making it suitable for the Internet of Things (IoT). LPWAN can cover large geographical areas, allowing devices to communicate over several kilometers without needing frequent battery replacements. LPWAN technologies include various protocols, such as LoRaWAN and Sigfox, which enable efficient data transfer in urban and rural settings. These networks support a high number of devices, making them cost-effective for applications like environmental monitoring, agriculture, and smart city initiatives.
