With its patented UNB technology and low throughput network, SIGFOX has met an incredible challenge: transmitting the billions of data of the Internet of Things in a cost-effective, eco-responsible, efficient and reliable way.
One of the keys to SIGFOX’s incredibly competitive low throughput Machine-to-Machine and Internet of Things communication technology ultimately lies in its radio technology. This UNB , that stands for Ultra Narrow Band, technology uses free frequency radio bands (no license needed) to transmit data over a very narrow spectrum to and from connected objects.
Designed for low throughput transmission (10b/s and1kb/s typical range), the UNB Wireless technology benefits from a high level of sensitivity. Data transportation becomes very long range (distances up to 40km in open field) and communication with buried, underground equipment becomes possible, all this being achieved with high reliability and minimal power consumption. Furthermore, the narrow throughput transmission combined with sophisticated signal processing provides effective protection against interference. This also ensures that the integrity of the data transmitted is respected.
Another advantage of the outstanding sensitivity of UNB devices is resources savings. The technology allows SIGFOX to deploy a very effective, low throughput communications network by limiting the number of antennas (base stations). When compared with a cellular network such as GSM, for the same level of coverage, SIGFOX’s solution requires around 1,000 times less antennas and base stations. The impact on cost is massive, is 100 times less expensive to build, install and operate.
Furthermore, each of the radio elements used in the network (to emit and receive data) are significantly less energy intensive than devices using competitive technologies (such as GSM or broadband radio). This achieved expertise allows SIGFOX to minimise the network’s ecological and economic footprint and to provide the cheapest low throughput M2M and IoT communications solution on the market.
