为何中国偏爱NB-Io T?这是个问题,也是个机会。年轻时的傅锦祥热爱物理学,希望去物理系读书,日后成为一名科学家。但很多人劝他,在香港学物理没什么工作机会,不如去学些技术,于是他最后选择了电子专业,并取得香港大学的工业工程硕士学位。这之后,没做科学家的傅锦祥在亚洲的电子行业的半导体、硬盘、EMS等领域工作30余年,最近担任的职务是世界500强的安富利(AVNET)亚太区总裁。
The same as LPWAN, NB-IoT(Narrowband Internet of Things) seems to be the protagonist of the future IoT, especially in China. It has been vigorously promoted by telecom operators. Globally, NB-Io T is comprehensively replacing GPRS IoT. As of May 2018, 45 NB-IoT commercial networks have been deployed worldwide, and over 500,000 base stations have been built. Although the outlook is optimistic, NB-Io T still has a lot of problems to be addressed, both in technology and business mode.
