Very often, your application will collect small samples from sensors, possibly only a handful of bytes for each sample.

Tip
titleRecommendation

We For applications collecting data more frequently than every 30 seconds, we recommend that you group several sensor readings into a large packet be grouped into larger packets (which you send infrequently) , rather than frequently sending a small packetif at all possible. Any data traffic generated at a rate higher than once per 30 seconds will result in devices using more power than their minimal possible state.

For example, if your application collects a 2-byte reading from a flow sensor every second, we recommend you cache those readings, and send a packet with 80 bytes of application payload every 40 seconds, rather than sending one packet with 2 bytes of application payload every second.
