The video shows typical NB-IoT use cases and discusses the biggest challenge in NB-IoT networks: coverage. What methods are used to increase the coverage in DL and UL direction?

IAR Systems has announced its support for newly launched IoT Microcontroller Operating System, Amazon FreeRTOS. Together with Amazon Web Services (AWS), IAR Systems provides developers with easy access to high performance, pre-integrated development tools for developing and debugging embedded and IoT-connected applications based on Amazon FreeRTOS.

  Will the IoT be secure? Cees Links, General Manager, Wireless Connectivity Business Unit at Qorvo talks about three factors that impact security.

Although Kontron is a global provider of Embedded Computing Technology (ECT), the company does have local support and offices within the UK, and in Nuremberg at this year’s SPS Drives the company saw this as an opportunity to present its new industrial computing platform for IoT gateway applications, the KBox A-203.

Global provider of Embedded Computing Technology (ECT) Kontron earlier this year at Embedded world, presented for the first time its trend-setting Kontron Secure Systems concept. This concept makes Kontron one of the first embedded computing providers to offer a holistic approach to protecting embedded systems on three device levels relevant to security: BIOS (Secure BIOS), operating system (Secure OS), and application (Secure Application).

  Research has revealed that security and LoB leaders are experiencing high levels of anxiety due to IoT/OT security concerns. The majority of organisations (82%) struggle to identify all of their network-connected devices, and when asked who is primarily responsible for securing IoT, IT and LoB leaders did not have a clear answer or delineation of ownership.

Enabling developers to quickly and securely connect IoT endpoints to the cloud, Texas Instruments has announced the integration of the new Amazon FreeRTOS into the SimpleLink microcontroller (MCU) platform. Amazon Web Services (AWS) has worked with TI in the development of an integrated hardware and software solution that enables developers to quickly establish a connection to AWS IoT service out-of-the-box and immediately begin system developmen...

This video from Rohde and Schwarz demonstrates precise power consumption measurements on an LTE-M (Cat-M1) device as example.

  During this year’s SEMICON Europa, which took place at the same time as productronica, Douglas Rudd from GE Digital gave a presentation entitled ‘realising the IIoT opportunity’.
