SMART UTILITIES AND ENERGY
DESCRIPTION
In the lights of the worldwide energy saving speech, water has become the main source that every individual must exert an effort in order to save it, and this can be smoothly fulfilled through accommodating a Smart Water Meter. With the establishment of the IoT, Water Meters showcase the volume of water consumed among a residential or a commercial building in order to avoid water waste that may lead to water shortage, by supporting reasonable and sustainable water usage monitoring to all communities. Furthermore, this consisting monitoring can help in reducing the water waste and leakage significantly
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.
