They suggest you:
- Start with a comprehensive scope - Different applications require different connectivity solutions based on location, power availability and data transmission frequency. Have you accounted for these?
- Keep it simple - By not measuring too much, you can reduce cost, complexity and power demand. But even simple devices can provide valuable insights, as the shared examples demonstrate.
- Focus on the software - It can extract valuable information from simple measurements like tracking cattle behaviour using GPS and accelerometer data. You don’t have to solve every problem with hardware.
- Use edge processing efficiently - Sometimes transmission volume and costs can be meaningfully reduced by analysing data and prioritising packets on-device. In that case, edge processing makes sense. Just ensure you have a clear purpose when paying more for devices.
- Keep network costs down - Match the right connection for your use case. Cellular connectivity isn't always the cheapest or most reliable option, especially in remote areas. Satellite connectivity might be more affordable and stable.
In this piece, you’ll explore how a range of companies are bringing better technology to market, often leveraging satellite connectivity for crucial data transmission. The link between them is the Globalstar Satellite Network, which plays a key role in enabling IoT solutions by providing quality satellite connectivity across the globe. In just a few short pages, invigorate your approach to IoT projects by focusing on simplicity and benefit matching; all powered by reliable satellite connectivity. This is one IoT white paper you’ll want to save to your desktop.
