Exploring the advantages of GSM/LTE/NB-IoT communication technologies

Global System for Mobile communication (GSM), LTE, and NarrowBand-Internet of Things (NB-IoT) are all wireless communication technologies that are widely used for mobile communications and IoT devices. Each technology has its own pros and cons, and the choice of which technology to use depends on the specific requirements and solution design.

Here are some of the reasons why GSM, LTE, or NB-IoT are often chosen over other communication technologies:

  • Wide coverage: GSM and LTE networks have extensive coverage and are available in most parts of the world, making them ideal for global connectivity. NB-IoT, on the other hand, has been designed specifically for IoT devices and offers greater coverage in hard-to-reach areas.
  • High data rates: LTE offers high data rates, making it suitable for applications that require fast and reliable data transfer. NB-IoT, although slower, still offers better data rates...
