(2024-04-02 image © the fast mode) We tend to think of mobile technologies are based on our general use of the network on our mobile phone. However there are a large and growing number of applications - IoT applications - that have different needs. IoT [Internet of Things] is all about small devices being connected to the internet. For example our smart meters are connected to a network and the demands placed on the network are not great, a few numbers every half hour or so. Rather than use the 'general' network a new protocol NB-IoT would be more suitable.

Taking the smart meter as an example again, the current meters are not really smart. They do not allow the customer really manage their energy use. A next generation smart meter will use the mobile network to send energy use data, and supply pricing to and from the new smart meters. This network traffic will use the NB-IoT network rather than the 'general' network.

Vodafone see the use of NB-IoT as growing considerably not just for smart meters but for all sorts of IoT applications. This could be a growth area for the mobile companies, and financially good for them.
