Wireless mesh networks are still a topic even over twenty years from the first indication of market success in less than five years at Gartner Hype Cycles (2003). Too many tradeoffs and limitations exist in latency, hop count limits, determinism, and reliability through all the globally supported wireless mesh networking technologies until today.
The reason is simple: their technical concepts focused primarily on routing optimization rather than reliability.
Contrary to that approach, the IQRF has focused on reliable message delivery as the primary value. With 250+ routing hops and reliable message delivery, the IQRF excels nowadays, especially in street lighting applications, where the long-range should be achieved, and high reliability must be guaranteed.
After two decades on the market, the IQRF gets standardized, allowing everyone to use and implement all technical achievements and reliable protocols protected by dozens of patents under one royalty-free license.
