| Abstract | The large demand for smart metering and control, asset tracking, remote monitoring, and other applications has resulted in the emergence of innovative new internet of things (IoT) low-power wide-area networks (LPWANs) featuring low power consumption, low cost, high scalability and low data rate transmissions. This article compares the performance of LoRaWAN, Sigfox, and NB-IoT as emerging technologies, in terms of power consumption, throughput, scalability, and range. For practical reasons, the comparison also includes cellular GPRS. Although GPRS does not fit the description of LPWAN technologies, it is a legacy method for IoT communications and provides insight into application areas where LPWAN technology can be applied. The study gives a clear comparative overview of the advantages and shortcomings of the various communication networks and highlights the most suitable applications cases for each technology on the basis of the tested metrics. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
