Long range wide-area network technology that operates in the open wireless spectrum and combines extended range with low power consumption. LoRaWAN uses free unlicensed spectrum and is designed for battery lifetime and cost, is non-IP based technology, and has a very low data rate. LoRaWAN provides a unique opportunity for operating a dedicated network or using services provided by commercial operators.

Short-range communication designed to operate on very little power to transfer small amounts of data. Trusted robust radio used widely already in many technology areas. BLE devices can be powered by small coin cell batteries for years. BLE devices connect to the internet via a phone or gateway, and are introducing meshing capabilities.

Popular technology with excellent throughput making it great for applications that require high data-exchange and high data rates and has power connected. Widely used and deployed as private networks in offices and towns, and can be relatively low cost and low power.
