Abstract

With so many platforms or protocols developed by several organizations or institutions, such as LoRa, NB-IoT and SigFox that have their own advantages and limitations. While it takes a large and long-term investment to deliver IoT technology. Apart from that, losses caused by the use of conventional meters on electricity customers cause a decrease in income by electricity supply companies. In this study aims to choose the internet-based technology of things for electricity smart meters in the PLN Disjaya region between three LoRa, NB-IoT and Sigfox technologies. This research is doing network design, coverage analysis, capacity analysis and network utilization, cost benefit calculation and analysis, data rate speed and proprietary. From the analysis results obtained SigFox superior in terms of coverage, capacity and network utilization, cost benefits (NPV, IRR, Payback Period, BCR, ROI), LoRa superior in terms of proprietary and NB-IoT superior in terms of data rate speed.
