14. NB-IoT in Bulgaria
😐 to achieve NB-IoT activated SIM card is not easy in Bulgaria ( even
if you get one the SIM may be deactivated without nottice for unknown
reason) so you and your business is totally dependant from the operator
😐 the range depend very much on which band is the base cell. Best
results are on Band 8 900Mhz.
😐 you can’t connect selectively to base cell of your choice, you
always connect to the one which has strongest signal.
15. Summary:
LPWAN technologies has huge potential.
Out of the big three SigFox, LoRaWAN and NB-IoT in
Bulgaria only LoRa is used actively, there are lot of
problems due to the absence of regulations.
NB-IoT has potential to dominate, if local operator has
vision how to develop this network. For the moment
there is none and soon it will not change until
competition is grown up.
