Microshare co-authors new book on growing LoRaWAN standard for IoT in Facilities Management
By Charles Paumelle, Ellen Brockley and Tim Panagos
A new eBook published in mid-December explains the transformative capabilities of the low-power, long-ranged LoRaWAN standard for IoT data transmission and includes a chapter by Microshare leaders explaining the vast potential for IoT and LoRaWAN deployments to monitor the health and performance of physical assets like commercial real estate, hospitals and clinics, airports, pipelines and other infrastructure.
Microshare Chief Marketing Officer Charles Paumelle, Director of Alliances Ellen Brockley and Chief Technology Officer Tim Panagos describe the strategic and technological advantages of Microshare’s smart building solutions, which deliver real-time and historical data in real time to fuel insights, cost efficiencies, sustainability and better decision-making.
The long-range wide area network (LoRaWAN) specification defines security and carrier-grade IoT LPWAN connectivity. LoRaWAN baud rates range from 0.3 kbps to 50 kbps and suffice for most remote monitoring applications. Additionally, LoRaWAN end devices are able to work with multiple networks and roam from one to another, even though these networks are run by different operators.
The applications for LoRaWAN are very broad. They include utilities, tracking and logistics, smart city and parking, agriculture and farming, intelligent building, monitoring of remote things like trash, cows, water pipes and the list goes on.
Microshare is a proud and leading member of the LoRa Alliance. Along with our fellow members, including Cisco, Actility, STMicroelectronics, Alibaba, Comcast MachineQ, Tencent, Cisco, Semtech, Sagemcom, Bouygues Telecom, Kerlink, Orange, Schneider, Bosch, Diehl, American Tower Brazil, and Mueller, we’re helping to make LoRaWAN the global standard.
