Abstract

Long-term evolution machine (LTE-M) is derived from the 3rd generation partnership project (3GPP) 4G LTE standard. It leverages the extensive LTE advantages in terms of efficient flat Internet protocol architecture, mobility, priority handling mechanisms, security, and a globally established base. It has strong ties with legacy 3GPP 2G and 3G networks, as well as a comparatively seamless migration to the powerful 5G solution. LTE-M can be efficiently utilized for a wide range of applications with varying range of bandwidths and latencies. It has considerable ...
