Narrowband IoT Measurements at Verkotan

What is Narrowband IoT?

NB-IoT is a new technology developed for IoT devices that send small amounts of data irregularly and require long periods of usage time. The technology offers several significant advantages such as improving the power consumption of devices and providing lower component cost using secure and reliable networks. Verkotan provides narrowband IoT Measurements to optimize the performance of your product.

NB-IoT Applications 

NB-IoT is appropriate for e.g., smart metering (gas, water and electricity) and smart city infrastructure (street lamps and waste bins). It can be beneficial for facility management services and tracking of persons, animals or objects.

Verkotan NB-IoT wireless testing solutions:

  • LTE CAT NB1 (NB-IoT) TRP&TIS + intermediary channel degradation test
  • LTE CAT M1 TRP&TIS + intermediary channel degradation test
  • LTE CAT 1 TRP&TIS + intermediary channel degradation test
  • LTE CAT 0 TRP&TIS + intermediary channel degradation test

Narrowband-IoT Measurements in Verkotan’s testing chamber 

  • Frequency range of 400MHz – 6GHz
  • Large chamber with capability to measure all kinds of IoT devices
  • Accurate measurements with R&S®CMW500

NB-IoT uses existing cellular network infrastructure to deliver excellent coverage and reliable connectivity. This approach is becoming adopted by major worldwide operators. The OTA test is critical for operators to qualify the interoperability and compliance of their NB-IoT devices. This is particularly important when a third-party enclosure is used with the device since the antenna coverage effects could be limited. The testing is especially required for US and Australian markets.
