M2M, IOT and Smart City solution
on LoRa & LoRaWAN
Capability and future demand in India
By Utpal Sinha – B.E(CSE), CCNA
Long range: 15 - 20 km Millions of nodes.
Long battery life: in excess of ten
years
Bi-directional data transmission from millions of
sensors deployed in rural and
remote locations
LoRaLoRa is a low data rate wireless technology.
key features
A wide area network having bidirectional capability can be design and deploy using LoRa technology.
A LoRaWAN consists of following elements
LoRa Network: LoRaWAN
.End Points
LoRa Gateway
Server
Remote Computer
Typically in a star-of-stars topology with gateways forming a transparent bridge.
An example of Smart metering solution for Water supply in India's populated city :
LoRa network architecture
bi-directional end-devices:
Class A
bi-directional end-devices with scheduled receive
slots:
Class B
bi-directional end-devices with maximal receive
slots:
Class C
LoRaWAN endpoint classesAccordingly the LoRaWAN supports three classes of endpoints:
1.• Unique Network key (EUI64) and ensure security
on network level
2. • Unique Application key (EUI64) ensure end to end
security on application level
3.• Device specific key (EUI128)
