Following the viral success of Alibaba's giant LoRa airship at the Yunqi Conference, symbolizing the Internet of Things (IoT), we are rapidly entering an era of interconnected things. Recently, Xiaomi's IoT conference further proclaimed the slogan "A New Era of Intelligent Interconnection of Everything." As for stand-alone smoke detectors, which already incorporate LoRa and NB-IoT technologies, their future development is a topic of great interest.
In today's my country, with its rapid economic development and increasing population density, most fires occur in residential areas or densely populated places. The main causes of these fires are as follows:
The shop is unattended;
No alarm output or linkage with other fire-fighting equipment;
The electrical wires are haphazardly strung, there are unauthorized constructions, and the wiring is severely aged;
The environment is enclosed and the fire-fighting facilities are rudimentary.
The solutions provided by LoRa and NB-IoT to address the above pain points are shown in the following diagram:
NB-IoT Solution Architecture Diagram
Clearly, the differences between the two can be seen from the two diagrams above. Next, we will analyze them from the perspective of their respective advantages.
The advantages of LoRa smoke sensor
Suitable for local deployment within a certain range;
We need to build our own base stations;
Protocol privacy, data security
Advantages of NB-Iot smoke sensation
It has no spatial or distance limitations, making it suitable for wide-area deployment;
The base stations are built by the operators, and users only need to pay for transmission (similar to 3G/4G internet access on mobile phones).
Wide coverage, massive connectivity, and lower power consumption
ZLG integrates the power of intelligence into LoRa and NB-IoT, providing systematic solutions. By focusing on professionalism and concentrating its strength to achieve dreams, ZLG provides high-quality modular solutions for the industry.
