#News(IoTStack) [ via IoTForIndiaGroup ]
The open LoRaWAN standard for IoT low-power wide area networks (LPWANs) enables smart sensors, devices, and other objects to connect wirelessly via gateways that relay messages to a central network server. It is known for its bi-directional communication with end-to-end security, mobility, and localization services.
Perhaps most noticeable of all is its combination of low power consumption and long range. Depending on the application, battery life can be up to 10 years and its range can extend greater than 10 miles. The applications of LoRaWAN are very broad; they cover smart cities, smart manufacturing, industrial IoT, smart homes, smart grids, infrastructure, smart farming, smart metering, supply chain management, and transportation, including asset tracking. The LoRaWAN ecosystem includes providers of chipsets, modules, devices, gateways, servers (network, security, application, or geolocation), networks (public, private, or hybrid), cloud platforms/data management, and complete solutions.
