SMART UTILITIES AND ENERGY
RESIDENTIAL
Acquiring an automated gas meter at your residence can make collecting energy data and calculating bills much easier. By having this tool installed, you can save yourself time by sending all the information automatically to the Utility Company, who will be able to provide accurate estimates of how much gas you used. In addition, having Smart Gas Meter installed gives you access to real-time readings that allow for precise calculations of how much gas was used in a given period of time. With a Low Power WAN (LPWAN) have also and advantage to a wireless communication . Overall, installing this technology is beneficial because it provides control over your energy usage while easy bill estimation.
COMMERCIAL
Managing your business properly and wisely can be achieved through using the Low Power WAN (LPWAN) to allow sending automated readings of gas consumption at your business environment with Smart Gas Meters installed. This would enable you to monitor your usage through adopting internet of things (IoT) technology, which would enable systematic timely reading of data 7 days a week. Applying this step or process could help reduce expenses associated with running your own business while monitoring your consumption on hourly basis.
LPWAN SIMPLE ARCHITECTURE
WHY IOT OVER LPWAN?
LPWAN (Low Power Wide-Area Network) is an advantageous networking solution due to its low energy
consumption and simple installation process. LPWAN uses the ISM frequency spectrum to provide a
low-power wide area network. The use of this frequency band allows LPWAN systems to be smaller, faster
and more reliable than traditional narrowband networks.
This type of network is perfect for massive spaces such as cities, schools, hospitals and offices that have
a high demand for data collection. The advantages of LPWAN extend to greater productivity and impproved efficacy from the capacity to link more devices concurrently. Additionally, costs associated with
linking units over a broad area network are minimized leading to shorter setup times and lower monthly
bills overall. LPWAN technology offers a range of advantages, including minimal power consumption and
prolonged battery life as well as decreased upkeep. Additionally, it facilitates the logging of data for inspection purposes while also enabling swift access to information in case of any problems with the
system. Furthermore, users will be notified if preset parameters are exceeded.
