Enhancing smart cities and metering with NB IoT and ST87M01

Discover how Narrowband IoT (NB IoT) technology can turn connected infrastructure into a long life, low touch asset instead of a recurring operational challenge. Connected services such as smart metering, lighting, parking, waste and environmental monitoring all rely on one critical foundation: connectivity that simply works for years. Networks must reach deep indoor meters and sensors, scale to millions of devices, keep data secure and remain economical to deploy and maintain. When connectivity falls short, projects face redesigns, unexpected truck rolls, battery failures and fragmented systems that are hard to grow.

This whitepaper explains how NB‑IoT can provide a robust connectivity layer by combining:

Wide‑area and deep‑indoor coverage
Multi‑year battery life
Carrier‑grade security and management
Reuse of existing 4G and 5G infrastructure

It then shows how ST’s ST87M01 NB‑IoT module and STEVAL‑NBIOTV1 reference design turn these capabilities into practical solutions that can be designed, prototyped and scaled with confidence.

Inside the whitepaper, you’ll learn how to:

Build resilient networks using licensed spectrum and standardized cellular technology, with predictable performance and global interoperability.
Extend device lifetime through ultra‑low‑power NB‑IoT operation, deep sleep modes and an on‑board Energy Estimator that predicts real battery usage in real networks.
Reduce hardware complexity with a single module that integrates NB‑IoT Cat NB2, optional GNSS and Wi‑Fi positioning, embedded protocol stacks and Wireless M‑Bus fallback.
Accelerate development using the STEVAL‑NBIOTV1 platform with an STM32U5 microcontroller, integrated sensors, positioning and ready‑to‑use firmware examples.

You’ll also see how NB‑IoT strengthens the overall business case for connected infrastructure by lowering total cost of ownership, enabling predictive maintenance and supporting new service and tariff models.

Download the whitepaper to see how NB‑IoT and ST87M01 can help you build smart city and metering solutions that scale reliably, remain secure and deliver predictable performance over their entire lifecycle.
