Discover empty parking spots

Empty waste bins only when full

Get real-time customer satisfaction feedback

Orange connects Vinci rest-stops with ThingPark


Belgium – Proximus

Airport asset tracking

Facility management • Sensors applied to the seating of conference rooms to measure

occupancy rate and check if cleaning required.• Toilet doors equipped with LoRa detector. If doors opened 20

times, an automatic cleaning order is sent to the cleaning teamsto replace paper or to clean the toilet

• Comfort monitoring parameters (temperature, humidity, CO2…)

Benefit : easy installation, battery life vs usual building sensors

MCS : building automation

Swissport Cargo Services – Zaventem Aiport

• Trolley vehicles carrying cargos were fitted with LoRa GPSmodules for real-time tracking and monitoring

• Optimise loading/unloading but also cleaning of the vehicles• 100 sensors today

Benefit : battery life increased versus usual GPS

• Mobile-for, a Proximus subsidiary withCommunithings

• Parking places will be equipped with LoRaparking sensors

• Drivers will be directed to the closest free spotwith a mobile app and can pay for the placethrough the same application

• Optimised road traffic management and urbanmobility stimulation

Benefit : battery life, outside network coverage

KPN connecting public street lighting with Ziut in the Netherlands

18

• Trial on a road for pedestrians and bicycles – 185street lamps

• LoRa sensors equipped street lights anddetectors

• Before: 11h/day at 100%• After: at 10% capacity most of the time, at 100%

if a pedestrian is detected nearby• Consumption reduced by 80%

Benefit: existing lamp retrofit, easy connection to network, bidirectional communication

5,000+ street lights in 13 cities


HR Groep – Waste management in cities

HR Groep – Smart public space management

• Smart traffic signs inform road authorities in real time & traffic safety isguaranteed. Road authorities do not need any visual inspection anymore.

• Traffic sign can be easily put back in case of a collision• Accelerometer based LoRa sensors• 500.000 units to be equipped

Benefit : LoRa sensors send information in case of accident, no need to sendagents to inspect periodically

Netherlands – KPN

Waste management

• LoRaWAN technology enabled waste containers that monitor thefilling level of the container

• Waste vehicle operations are adapted and best route is definedin real-time towards full waste containers to optimise operations

Benefit : easy installation, battery life, avoiding congestion due to unoptimised routes


Indoor asset tracking for airports or hospitals (wheelchairs, trolleys…)

Challenge

Solution

BenefitsPartners

• Assets can be tracked indoor with a precision of 2-5 meters• Monitoring the locations of assets helps deliver better service and

reduce waiting times• Loss or misplacement are reduced

• Indoor LoRa/BLE trackers (tags)• LoRa and BLE beacons to be installed every 30-50m• LoRaWAN gateways (outdoor or indoor) with Ethernet or cellular

backhaul• Actility ThingPark network management server• Dedicated tracking application

• Track assets such as wheelchairs, luggage trolleys, mobile beds or gas bottles• GPS not available, and no public LoRaWAN connectivity


The Smart Agriculture Use Case – Fonterra farmers in New Zealand

•S3P Soil Probe — measures soil moisture and temperature•WaterMon — analyzes farm water levels, leaks, and usage•RainMon — reports rain volume hourly•Octometer — monitors and reports on milk care and hygiene•Gate-State — reports on gate or door security

Dairy farmers in remote areas of New Zealand face a variety of environmental constraints and regulations. In response, Tony and Marlene Walters, owners of South Auckland’s Plainvue Farms, have trialed new low-power, wide area (LPWA) technology, supported by SenSys and Spark New Zealand.

Simplifying LoRaWAN deployment for Enterprise customers

• Many industrial IoT use-cases can be easily supported

by private enterprise roll-outs

• LoRaWAN Core is standards-based and easy to roll-out

for Enterprise IT infrastructure

• LoRaWAN Radio Access Gateways can be installed on

roof-tops or indoor

• Optimized " private " or campus gateway roll-outs

provide improved coverage for industrial sensors giving

higher average bit rates and longer battery life

Why is there growing demand for enterprise roll-out of LoRaWAN?

Centralized LoRaWAN Core for multi-site management


Why choose a private LoRaWAN network?

Cost structure

• No connectivity cost• Limited CAPEX• Billing based on number of gateways and not on devices• No licence fees for spectrum / technology

Control & flexibility

• No dependency on public network coverage• No uplink / downlink limitation by operators (other than regulation)

• Control on deployment & business model• Scalability

Business

Infrastructure

• Better connectivity indoor• Total control over data and closed networks (no need for internet)• Choice of any gateways (industrial, outdoor, indoor, pico…) allowing to provide coverage

even in the most remote areas

• Allows new business models not dependent on operators• Scalable model, based on site deployments• Variety of available use cases and hundreds of devices / applications
