What is Narrowband IoT

Chapter 8
Principles and Applications of Narrowband Internet of Things (NBIoT)
This is a recent version of IoT. As the name suggests this version uses narrow bands for its operation. It is a popular LPWA technology due to its large coverage, low energy consumption, and overall simplicity. It is compatible with almost all kinds of cellular communications.

Abstract
Use of NBIoT in agriculture can enhance the performance in many aspects. Resource management in agriculture is one of the key aspects. Resources which are used to increase the harvest are underutilized because of the non-availability of precise monitoring facilities. NB-IoT can help in the optimal utilization of resources. It can accurately sense the level of usage of resources and enhance the utilization efficiency. NBIoT associated with variety of sensors for sensing water, fertilizer concentration, humidity levels can help in monitoring applications and provide great degree of precision. With NBIoT, remote controlling of the resources is possible. Use of NBIoT for agriculture reduces the energy consumption levels and overall cost involved which is ideal for farmers. Even the harvest can be increased by efficiently distributing the nutrition to the plants with NBIoT-based precise techniques.

NB-IoT for Localization and Target Detection
NB-IoT is an LPWAN technology that operates via carrier networks with the need for a very small amount of data to be communicated for longer duration at places where it is difficult to reach for existing technologies. It mainly focuses on applications with indoor coverage that require low-cost implementation and operation, long battery life, wider deployment, and high connection density.
