EchoStarMobile, an
EchoStar subsidiary, has reached a deal with
Semtech Corporation to test satellite Internet of Things (IoT) connectivity services enabled by the LoRaWAN protocol.
LoRaWAN is a protocol for Low Power Wide Area Networks (LPWANs) that is used for IoT networks. It has recently expanded to include Long Range – Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum (LR-FHSS) data rates. This extends the LoRaWAN protocol’s support to enable direct data links from end nodes to satellites.
Marc Pegulu, vice president of IoT product marketing and strategy for Semtech said the companies are working on a complementary satellite and terrestrial LoRaWAN network connectivity services for customers who require global coverage including over land and sea.
