Presentation I gave during Telenor Technology fair on 25th November The video: blog.telenor.io/video/2015/12/08/solving-connectivity-iot.html

1. solving connectivity
@janjongboom
for the internet of things

2. @janjongboom
CTO Office
Internet of Things

3. IoT is spread out
Four different teams

4. Four teams
All ended up same position

5. Before we can do IoT
we need to solve connectivity

6. Cellular
Long range, but week of battery

7. 2.4 GHz
Bluetooth, Zigbee, etc.
Years of battery, max. 100 meter

8. Connecting sensors
is a new problem
First time: bandwidth doesn't matter

9. Time for new tech!

10. Long Range, Wide Area
Sub GHz spectrum
No gateway pinning
Big antenna picks out signals

11. Results
Penetrates buildings, walls
2 KM range downtown
15 KM range open-field

12. Only draws power
when emitting
What makes it perfect for sensors...

13. Variety of vendors
LoRa, Sigfox, Siglo, Weightless-N

14. LoRa

15. Why LoRa?
Available today
Relative low cost
Gateways € 1200
Radio chip € 6
Full sensor € 30

16. First project
Telenor Eiendom

17. 400 sensors
Making Fornebu smart

18. Building 100 ourselves
Create hardware competency in telenor

19. 4 problems
Flex-desk, temperature, toilets, coffee

20. Easy deployment
2 gateways
devices are wireless
perfect for existing buildings

21. Facility management
Auto-dispatches coffee-repair people

22. Lot of work

23. but where?
Gateways just forward...

26. so... we need a network
Jan and Olav went building something

27. Tech stack

28. Multiple basestations
No gateway pinning

29. Gateway -> Network
De-dupe, data rate, join's, verify, etc.

30. Encryption
Everything end to end encrypted

31. Let's build a network
Take demo implementation from
Semtech and go from there

32. gateway #1
gateway #2
network server
AWS IoT
DynamoDB myMCS

33. Our problems are not unique
Private site, private network...

34. LoRa network server

35. as a service
LoRa network server

36. Telenor LPWA
Private lora networks w/ click of a button

37. http://lora.cloud.tcxn.net:1880/nw/eiendom/

38. First client: Eiendom
Make it solid, then open up

39. We own the network
Route networks over
other gateways
Long term gain:

40. Next steps

41. Fornebu is open thru LPWA!
So open for YOU!

42. Build end-device
Register on LPWA, and see data flow in
Trondheim team can help you build end-nodes

43. Build something cool
Use the data...

44. Thank you!
