The Future of DLMS Over LoRaWAN and Its Potential to Revolutionize the Energy Industry

Pioneering the Future of Energy with DLMS and LoRaWAN

During a panel session at a recent LoRaWAN Live! event in Orlando, moderated by Semtech, four prominent companies shed light on the application of Device Language Message Specification for smart electric metering in Brazil. 

Interoperability of Smart Metering Data With Use of Standards is the New Rule in European Union

Understanding Smart Metering and LoRaWAN® Interoperability Standards in the EU

LoRaWAN, with the support of key metering standards DLMS and M-bus, is now a key component to compliance and interoperability among smart metering vendors for European utilities.

The LoRaWAN 1.0.4 Specification in Depth For End Device Developers

The LoRaWAN 1.0.4 Specification in Depth For End Device Developers course is designed to provide a comprehensive understanding of the LoRaWAN 1.0.4 specification, crucial for efficient LoRaWAN implementation and end device development. The course is divided into six chapters, or books, each focusing on a specific aspect of LoRaWAN implementation.

Is ±2kV HBM ESD Protection Enough for IoT Devices?

Application of IoT and the Importance of ESD Protection

The Internet of Things (IoT) is a network of physical devices embedded with sensors, software, and other technologies to connect and exchange data with other devices and systems over the Internet. It shares the data with a Cloud server or a gateway to analyze and take corresponding actions (Figure 1). One noteworthy application of IoT is in agriculture. The amount and time of water irrigation are decided based on IoT sensors that gather information on soil moisture content, nutrients, fertilizer amount, and weather information—helping farmers make smart decisions to prevent wasting resources. IoT applications have also become very popular in manufacturing and industrial automation, from factory floors to department stores, tracking machine performance, measuring product quality, and asset tracking to real-time location systems. In smart home automation, IoT-based systems have made our homes safer and easily maintainable.

How to Quickly Deploy Internet of Things (IoT) Solutions on the Helium LoRaWAN® Network

Why Choose the Helium Network for IoT Solutions

The Helium Network is a platform for systems integrators and other who want to get LoRaWAN® -based IoT solutions to market quickly without investing in a lot of infrastructure.

Semtech Launches Optimized FMS Networking Solution Enabled by LoRa®, To Provide Lightweight and Low-Cost Reference Design for Industrial and Other Applications

As one of the seven core industries of digital economy in China, the Internet of Things (IoT) has experienced a remarkable growth trajectory over the past few years. The "14th Five-Year Plan for Development of Digital Economy" proposes to improve the coverage level of the IoT in industrial manufacturing, emergency management and other fields, and enhance the collaboration between fixed networks and mobile networks, as well as the combination of wideband and narrowband networks for IoT. The Three-Year Action Plan of New Infrastructure Construction of Internet of Things (2021-2023) also proposes to accelerate new infrastructure construction to enable comprehensively sensing, ubiquitously connected, safe and reliable IoT. Professional IoT networking solutions will help improve sensor connectivity, efficiency, and reliability, thus helping enterprises achieve efficient management.

Low-Dropout (LDO) Regulator for Battery-Powered Wireless IoT Sensors

The Internet of Things (IoT) is a network of sensors and devices connected to the Internet to share and exchange data and instructions with a local or Cloud gateway/server (Figure 1). IoT sensors are a vital element of the IoT ecosystem, and increasingly they are using wireless technologies to service and connect all types of use cases and location-specific constraints. These sensors collect real-time data and share it with the gateway to forward to a Cloud-based application for processing, enable better decision-making at the ‘edge,’ or automate processes. Wireless communication protocols such as LoRaWAN®, cellular, Bluetooth, and Wi-Fi help transmit the data.

Amazon Sidewalk Prerequisites and Development Kits

To begin working with LoRa technology on Amazon Sidewalk, Amazon Sidewalk developers will need specific development kits, such as those provided by Silicon Labs, and Nordic Semiconductor. Both companies offer comprehensive Sidewalk development kits that can help you get started with LoRa and Amazon Sidewalk right away.

CES 2023: LoRa®-enabled Sensors Deliver on Smart Industry Promise

We’re grateful to be at CES 2023, where the momentum around solutions with Semtech’s LoRa® devices and the LoRaWAN® standard is incredibly strong. This morning, we had the pleasure of connecting with a wide range of customers, LoRa ecosystem partners and industry experts to discuss the powerful impact of low power, long range Internet of Things (IoT) technologies on enabling a smarter, greener and more resilient future for our planet. The journey to lower carbon emissions — and, more broadly, help the enterprise achieve its environmental, social and governance (ESG) goals — is a cornerstone to Semtech’s innovation for a better world. 

Stal Data Monitors Environmental Conditions and Pig Health With LoRaWAN®

Intensive pig farming, also known as the ‘intensive piggery system’, has become the primary method of farming in the pig industry. According to this method, pigs are housed indoors and confined in individual stalls or straw-lined sheds at high stocking density, while keeping pigs of similar ages to live together in large crowds under common environmental settings. By doing so, feeding efficiency is significantly improved, and emerging technologies are often employed to maintain pig health and safeguard pig growth - monitoring various environmental parameters inside the barns with wireless temperature and humidity sensors is an exemplary case in point.
