The benefits of RF mesh networks for smart metering, smart grid and IoT
Talk Synopsis
This presentation provides an overview of wireless radio frequency (RF) mesh technology and discusses the many benefits of sub GHz RF mesh networks for Smart metering, Smart Grid and many applications in the broader industrial Internet of Things (IoT). The RF mesh connectivity is filling the gap between long-range radio for simplistic battery-powered sensors that require minimal bandwidth and cellular only connectivity, which provides more throughput but usually offers limited or even poor coverage for devices deployed indoor or in basements for instance. This presentation also includes some high-level remarks on how to secure such infrastructure based on field experience from several projects in different parts of the world over many years.
