How To Improve Power Efficiency with Network-Side Control for IoT Devices

Improving Cellular Power Efficiency with Network-Side Control for IoT Devices

Presented by: Markus Pihl, IoT Connectivity Specialist, Soracom

In Collaboration with: @Qoitech and @Sony

Cutting down on power consumption brings immense benefits to IoT applications.


In this webinar, you’ll learn the intricacies of cellular power management, specifically:

Optimising Device Settings: Challenges in adapting device settings for different cellular environments and the potential of network-side control for power-saving features.

Network-Controlled Adaptations: Step-by-step guide on modifying eDRX values through the Soracom API push, illustrating the seamless implementation of these changes on an LTE-M connected Sony Spresense, without any data transmission or active changes on the device.

Impact Analysis: Using Qoitech’s Otii Arc Pro tool, we’ll showcase the before-and-after power profiles of the device, demonstrating the substantial impact of eDRX value adjustments on power efficiency.
