Bridging Technologies: Multi-Connectivity in IoT
summary
Companies demo a working multi‑radio strategy: a cellular+Wi‑Fi+satellite module and a LoRaWAN gateway with cellular backhaul are shipping, and single‑die designs pair sub‑GHz and cellular radios. Real deployments include smart metering and asset trackers; NB‑IoT trials run in the Netherlands since 2017 and there are emerging citywide LoRaWAN deployments. Key constraints are unit economics (satellite billed per kilobyte), certification complexity, and coverage tradeoffs that decide which radio actually gets used.
