Proposal(s) topic:
IoT Internet of Things
Impact on SMEs:
Impact on SMEs (6th Open Call)
The contribution made within this fellowship adds value to the development of LoRa mesh network technology. SMEs may then feel more confident in adopting the technology.
Impact on society:
Impact on society (6th Open Call)
The technology provides a permanent low-cost and low-energy routed multi-hop communication network with moderate data rates. LoRa mesh networks allow a new kind of distributed IoT applications in the long range IoT layer. One of the application areas of LoRa mesh networks is the emerging field of distributed embedded machine learning. LoRa mesh networks are not yet standardised. To initialise standardisation, we will introduce the LoRaMesh networks as a design and reference implementation.
Value of Research
The objective is to present LoRa mesh networks to the IRTF GAIA WG of the IETF. GAIA seeks technologies to connect the unconnected world, and with IRTF GAIA as a vehicle, we seek to start the standardisation activity of this new technology.
