"As industries accelerate the AI revolution and mobile operators plan the retirement of legacy networks, the transition from 4G to 5G is reshaping what is possible in large-scale IoT deployments. LPWA technologies, from gas and water meters to asset trackers and safety infrastructure, have varying throughput demands that are set for operating in the field over the next 10 to 20 years."
""The future of IoT is clearly converging around eRedCap," said Nohik Semel, CEO of Sony Semiconductor Israel. "It brings the performance needed for tomorrow's connected devices while preserving the efficiency and longevity that industries count on. For device makers designing for the next 10 to 20 years, eRedCap is the technology that will facilitate the move from 4G into a fully 5G world.""
eRedCap is presented as the foundation for next-generation global, long-life Altair IoT devices, targeting applications that require higher throughput, voice capability, or richer data streams. Use cases include industrial automation, next-generation safety systems, wearables, and AI-centric consumer devices that need real-time, low-power, higher-throughput communication. Traditional LPWA technologies will continue supporting ultra-low-power and deep-indoor use cases where only small amounts of data are sent. eRedCap enables gradual migration from 4G to 5G, allowing operators to free spectrum, stop maintaining parallel networks, and eventually retire 4G. eRedCap is based on 3GPP Release 18 and aims to balance performance with efficiency and longevity.
