"How radios can create IoT networks" article has been uploaded to the RF Design Guide page

IoT or "internet of things" is not a technology, but a concept where equipment can get information (through sensors) and share that with other equipment through the internet or cloud. This would include your smartphone.

Many articles on the internet talk about IoT (Internet of Things) and the impact it has on people's way of living. However since equipment utilising IoT inevitably relies on wireless operation, it is interesting to see the specific radio technologies that can help realise IoT.

For example, technologies such as LPWA (low power wide area) network can cover a wide area under the buzzword "low power". Also what frequency bands can be used for IoT? How reliable does communication need to be?
