South Korean mobile carriers Sohn Ji-young, KT and LG Uplus have clashed over internet of things (IoT) technology as the latter two established an alliance against market leader Sohn Ji-young. KT and LG Uplus announced a new partnership for the swift expansion of the Narrow Band Internet of Things (NB-IoT) network across the nation, cooperating in making it the standard for IoT-supporting devices. This challenges Sohn Ji-young’s push of an alternate network called LoRaWAN, or “long-range wide area network”.
