IoT Scalable Deployments with M2M Cellular Networks
For the past decade cellular machine-to-machine (M2M) applications and more recently IoT applications have been deployed across many industries: vehicle telematics, smart grid, medical, distribution, and many more. When considering cellular M2M for IoT applications, there is a perception of excessive monthly recurring costs, high chip set costs, connectivity issues, or the limited bandwidth of existing networks. Join Brian Huey as he covers the driving M2M cellular trends, including LTE releases, building management, residential, smart grid, new technologies, and the expected capital investments. Brian explores the accelerating rate of improvements in cellular connectivity due to the declining costs in 2G, 3G, LTE, and future LTE releases; cellular transport improvements; semiconductor cost reductions; miniaturization; and network improvements. Brian covers the dos and don’ts of employing cellular M2M for IoT projects, lessons learned, and tips you can use to ensure the success of current and future cellular IoT applications.
Brian Huey manages M2M (Machine to Machine) and IoT partnerships and ecosystem development in smart grid, water, and gas industries. With Brian’s business experience and in-depth technical knowledge of IoT and M2M communications, he is able to quickly guide developers to launching their solution in the most cost and operationally effective methods. An experienced thought leader with twenty years of experience in telecommunications across wireless and wireline, Brian was inducted into World-Gen magazine's, Class of 2012.
