Working with network partners RWE GasNet and Softlink, ČRa has
developed a LoRa-based solution that was tested in the spring of
2015 and has now been launched in select markets. The tests
demonstrated the long reach, low power consumption and low
operational costs of the LoRa technology. They also exhibited the
signal quality and reach to both outside and inside facilities,
which is a key parameter for smart metering.
“The LoRa technology and LoRaWAN™ results were significantly
better than the alternative available technologies we evaluated,
which opens up a wide field of use,” said Petr Sichrovský,
Commercial Director, ČRa. “The Internet of Things will
significantly contribute to making a wide spectrum of human
activities more efficient and will make everyday life simpler.”
“ČRa demands strict RF standards for its network and has been
very diligent in its evaluations of the LoRa technology and LoRaWAN
protocol, which have exceeded ČRa’s expectations and delivered to
us confirmation that the technology is a great choice for
real-world IoT networks,” said Jaap Groot, Vice President of System
Business Development for Semtech’s Wireless, Sensing and Timing
Product Group. “ČRa wants to provide a smart city infrastructure
for its partners allowing them easier implementation of their own
solutions.”
According to industry consultant Gartner, billions of devices
around the world will be connected by 2020. ČRa is positioning
itself to cater to IoT development throughout the country and
region with infrastructure that offers nationwide coverage and a
high-performance cloud computing data center.
The pilot network, developed by ČRa for RWE GasNet and Softlink
s.r.o., uses pulse sensors on the RWE gas pipeline to capture data
that is then sent via the LoRa radio network into the ČRa cloud.
From there, the data is processed and sent to end-users. The pilot
operation has been implemented in Prague and surrounding suburbs,
and the network should be ready for commercial launch by the end of
2015.
