SMART UTILITIES AND ENERGY
SMART GAS METER
Gas meters will provide many advantages through a handy in-home display. This includes being able to track the energy being consumed with accurate measures and determinations, as well as spotting the peak of energy, controlling it and observing your impact upon spending rate. Communication over Low Power WAN (LPWAN) between meter and Utility server can provide this IoT solution.
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?
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.
