  1. SIGFOX System Description Juan Carlos Zuniga Benoit Ponsard draft-zuniga-lpwan-sigfox-system-description-00

  2. Architecture Network protocols Central LPWA Gateway / Cloud-based (Service Center) Radio Gateway (Base Station) End-device application transparent to the network End-device identification and localization 32-bit globally unique device ID Central authentication with no roaming requirements

  3. Relevant L1 characteristics Uplink Channelization mask: 100 Hz (600 Hz in the USA) Uplink baud rate: 100 baud (600 baud in the USA) Modulation scheme: DBPSK Uplink transmission power: compliant with local regulation Link budget: 155 dB (or better) Central frequency accuracy: not relevant, provided there is no significant frequency drift within an uplink packet In Europe, the UNB uplink frequency band is limited to 868,00 to 868,60 MHz, with a maximum output power of 25 mW and a maximum mean transmission time of 1%

  4. Relevant L1 characteristics Downlink Channelization mask: 1.5 kHz Downlink baud rate: 600 baud Modulation scheme: GFSK Downlink transmission power: 500 mW (4W in the USA) Link budget: 153 dB (or better) Central frequency accuracy: Centre frequency of downlink transmission set by the network according to the corresponding uplink transmission In Europe, the UNB downlink frequency band is limited to 869,40 to 869,65 MHz, with a maximum output power of 500 mW with 10% duty cycle

  5. Relevant L2 characteristics Framing Fragmentation and encryption at application layer Unicast asynchronous communications Unbalanced channels Max limitation: 140 Uplink vs 4 Downlink messages per day Limitations can be slightly relaxed depending on system conditions L2 security Message authentication code and unique device ID Key management: pre-provisioned +--------+--------+--------+------------+-------------+-----+ |Preamble|Frame | Dev ID | Payload |Msg Auth Code| FCS | | (19) |Sync(29)| (32) | (0-96) | (16-40) | (16)| +--------+--------+--------+------------+-------------+-----+ Uplink Frame Format +------------+--------+-----+---------+-------------+-----+ | Preamble |Frame | ECC | Payload |Msg Auth Code| FCS | | (91) |Sync(13)| (32)| (0-64) | (16) | (8) | +------------+--------+-----+---------+-------------+-----+ Downlink Frame Format

  6. Network deployment + Target Apps Current Network Deployment SIGFOX LPWAN fully deployed in France, Spain, Portugal, Netherlands, Luxembourg, and Ireland Being rolled out in Germany, UK, Belgium, Denmark, Czech Republic, Italy, Mauritius Island, Australia, New Zealand, Oman, Brazil, Finland, Malta, Mexico, Singapore and the U.S. Coverage, number of devices 1,3 million square kilometers Population of 340 million people Max cell size of 50 km Example application Several device types, for instance: asset tracking, smart cities, home safety and security, utilities, environmental monitoring and personal health https://partners.sigfox.com/ Expected battery lifetime 10-15 years
