DESCRIPTION
Since many manhole covers provide access to important infrastructure beneath, it is important to monitor each one in order to track any tampering or unauthorized opening. With the development of technology and the rise of IoT, real-time detection of manhole cover movement has become a demand so that remote data can be sent and detected location if moved in order protect against any unpredicted access. Low Power Wide-Area Network (LPWAN) offers great value for wide area coverage with higher capacity over other solutions.
LPWAN SIMPLE ARCHITECTURE
WHY IOT OVER LPWAN?
The benefits of LPWAN extend to greater productivity and more effective use of resources when linking devices simultaneously. Additionally, costs associated with connecting units over a broad area network are minimized- meaning setup times is shorter and monthly expenses are lowered overall.
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.
LPWAN technology offers a number of benefits, such as low power consumption and long battery life. It also makes it easy to record data for inspection purposes and allows users to access information quickly in the event of any issues with the system. Furthermore, LPWAN notifications will let you know if specific parameters are being exceeded.
