Rough estimate of power consumption on nrf9160 in nb-iot and CatM mode

[Arne Laugstøl]

I am trying to find some rough estimate of power consumption on nrf9160 in nb-iot and Cat-M mode.

We are going send about 600 bytes every 15 min, and would like to know the expected average power consumption for each of the operations mode. We will also use it for estimating battery capacity that we need in the project.

Regards Arne

Hi,

I recommend you take a look at our Online Power Profiler. It will let you play around with different network parameters, etc. and give you an estimate on the power consumption.

Best regards,

Didrik
