Local Area and Personal Area Networking with low power characteristics. The main difference between LPLA and LPWA is that LPLA has no continuous wide-area networking, but LPLA networks may use gateways (Cellular, Wi-Fi) to achieve wider area networking. Hybrid solutions (ZigBee mesh with cellular backhaul) are counted as LPLA in this forecast with backhauled mesh networking (e.g., ZigBee mesh with Cellular M2M backhaul)
Not included are:
Low-Power, Wide-Area Networks (LPWA) Technologies including pure WAN solutions (SIGFOX, White Spaces). Most LPWA solutions are low bandwidth or ultra-low bandwidth solutions, which helps to conserve power. These are in a separate forecast
Low-Power, local-area devices that do not connect to the internet directly or via a gateway (e.g., RFID entry cards, bank cards) are not included, even though they may generate data that other services use online.
A smart card reader like Square that enables payment by direct connection through a smartphone is not generally included because such devices connect directly through the data port on the smartphone. A smart card reader using Bluetooth is included.
Fixed line connections are not included
