This is a short overview of Smart Cities and company’s IoT product deployment case study, which is based on the article “Adoption of Smart Cities with a Practical Smart Building Implementation“ [1] by Marcin Dryjański, Mateusz Buczkowski, Youssouf Ould-Cheikh-Mouhamedou, and Adrian Kliks which is a magazine article in IEEE Internet of Things Magazine. Abstract [1] Smart […]

As for previous years, 2019 abounded with the different types of events for Grandmetric crew. This post reminds the Grandmetric events tour in 2019 chronologically. We also projected our presence and initiatives for the 2020 so we lift the curtain a bit in this post.

IoT System consists of multiple devices and we expect each of them to work flawlessly. There are many reasons why the service might not work in such complex environment. Starting from physical damage of the device, power outage, up to network failure or software bug. Whatever the issue is, we want to be aware of it as soon as possible.

This post provides introduction to Smart Cities including: definition, drivers for smart cities, use cases, components of smart cities, challenges, and Telecommunications Service Providers (TSPs) Value Propositions for smart cities.

Narrowband Internet of Things (NB-IoT) is a secure, reliable, and efficient type of Low-Power Wide-Area (LPWA) Technology that was standardized by 3GPP in Release 13 (LTE Advanced Pro) and uses licensed spectrum.

2017 was a very exciting year with a lot of new technological trends emerging such as 5G, IoT, MTC, SDN, etc. We tried to cover a vast variety of topics in our blog posts and also introduced the Grandmetric Guidepaper to get deeper understanding of the technological concepts.

eMTC (aka LTE Cat-M, while in fact, CAT-M is just a definition of UE type/category supporting eMTC) is a low power wide area (LPWA) wireless technology developed by the 3GPP to address the growing need for a solution to address the requirements for IoT applications and Machine-Type Communication (MTC) in terms of cost and power consumption reduction without any significant change to the current LTE deployment.

In this blogpost, we will discuss the most popular LPWAN technologies which are present in the current market that enable “Connectivity” for these IoT devices.

eSIM (also known as embedded Universal Integrated Circuit Card, eUICC) technology allows the download and activation of eSIM profiles over the air in a seamless, secure, and convenient way, using Remote SIM Provisioning (RSP) Platform [1] and has the following features…

As we are bombarded from all over the places with the repeated phrase that “5G will not be only about higher speeds and shortened latency, but it’s the whole ecosystem change”, the question arises, do the satellite systems also fit in this picture? Based on recent research and 3GPP standardization discussion, the answer seems – […]
