Sumario:Nowadays we live in a communicated world in which the concept of Internet of Things (IoT) is becoming more important. This concept refers to the digital interconnection of any object with internet through different technologies. Technologies that can be the traditional, such as LTE, WiFi or Bluetooth, or the recently developed for the IoT world, called Low Power Wide Area Networks (LPWAN), such as LoRa, Sigfox or RPMA among others. These new technologies, which aim to become future standards, offer many interesting capabilities. When choosing the most appropriate communication technology for each type of application is important to know their capabilities, as well as the advantages they offer respect to each other. Due to this reason, a theorical study of the main LPWAN technologies has been carried out. The conclusions of this theoretical study suggest that the characteristics of Sigfox make it one of the most promising technologies in the sector and is present in many devices. It is for this reason that, in order to verify and analyze these characteristics in detail, a NS-3 model of this communication technology has been implemented. With this model is possible to study many characteristics in different environments, such as coverage, power consumption or error rate. The final intention of this work, which pretends to be a future Doctoral Thesis, is to rely on this model to propose new protocols that improve Sigfox beyond its limitations.
