Low-Power Wide Area Networks (LPWANs) are wireless technologies with
characteristics such as large coverage areas, low bandwidth, possibly
very small packet and application-layer data sizes, and long battery
life operation.  This memo is an informational overview of the set of
LPWAN technologies being considered in the IETF and of the gaps that
exist between the needs of those technologies and the goal of running
IP in LPWANs.

This document is a product of the IPv6 over Low Power Wide-Area Networks Working Group of the IETF.
