Number of Tables and Figures: 51
Report Overview:
Until recently, most M2M and IoT services have largely relied on licensed c=
ellular, wireline and satellite networks for their wide area connectivity r=
equirements. Cellular networks, in particular, have enjoyed significant suc=
cess in the arena. However, for many low bandwidth IoT applications, tradit=
ional cellular networks are deemed too expensive due excessive power consum=
ption and complex protocols that lower battery life. As a result, a number =
of LPWA (Low Power Wide Area) alternatives have emerged that specifically s=
eek to address these concerns.
LPWA networks are optimized to provide wide area coverage with minimal powe=
r consumption. Typically reliant on unlicensed frequencies, LPWA devices ha=
ve low data rates, long battery lives and can operate unattended for long p=
eriods of time.
Already prevalent in IoT applications such as smart metering, lighting cont=
rol and parking management, LPWA networks are expected to make a significan=
t contribution to the M2M and IoT ecosystem, with an estimated $27 Billion =
in service revenue by 2020.
The =93LPWA (Low Power Wide Area) Networks Ecosystem: 2015 =96 2030 =96 Opp=
ortunities, Challenges, Strategies, Industry Verticals & Forecasts=94 repor=
t presents an in-depth assessment of the LPWA networks ecosystem including =
LPWA technologies, key trends, market drivers, challenges, vertical market =
applications, deployment case studies, regulatory landscape, standardizatio=
n, opportunities, future roadmap, value chain, ecosystem player profiles an=
d strategies. The report also presents market size forecasts from 2015 till=
2030. The forecasts are segmented for 9 vertical markets and 6 regions.
The report comes with an associated Excel datasheet suite covering quantita=
tive data from all numeric forecasts presented in the report.

Key Findings:
The report has the following key findings:
Already prevalent in IoT applications such as smart metering, lighting cont=
rol and parking management, LPWA networks are expected to make a significan=
t contribution to the M2M and IoT ecosystem, with an estimated $27 Billion =
in service revenue by 2020.
As of Q4=922015, SNS Research estimates the cost of a typical LPWA module t=
o be $5-20, depending on the specific technology. As LPWA network deploymen=
ts mature, we expect that the cost per module can drop down to as low as $1=
-2 in volume quantities.
At present, a majority of LPWA networks operate in license-exempt spectrum =
primarily in sub-GHz bands. There are a number of ongoing initiatives that =
call for regulators to dedicate spectrum bands exclusively for LPWA network=
s as mass market adoption of unlicensed LPWA networks can result in signifi=
cant interference.
Besides optimizing their cellular networks for M2M services, mobile operato=
rs are increasingly investing in their own carrier-grade LPWA networks to s=
upport low bandwidth IoT applications.
