NEC will bring a new network server that complies with LoRa WAN, a new wireless communication technology, and LPWA that creates wide area networks with low power consumption for telecom carriers in December.
NEC said the new server carries out ID control, data rate control and channel allocation for sensor devices complying with LoRaWAN through the LoRaWAN gateway. It mediates data processing from each sensor device to the application server.
The LoRa network server features a function for conducting flexible multi-tenant and multi-device control assuming a variety of service provision formats of communication carriers. It is capable of providing LoRaWAN network services to numerous companies and service providers.
Its WebAPI capability enables interoperability with service applications using LoRa. This facilitates the utilization of data collected from sensor devices.
“This new server enables new IoT services to be flexibly provided to telecommunications carriers in combination with gateways and end-devices,” said Shigeru Okuya, senior vice president of NEC Corporation.
