Technology
InaMesh deploys MESH networks to LoRaWAN world
With only a few LoraWAN gateways it covers very large areas because of an advanced routing algorithm and path unlimited hops
InaMesh Protocol
No broadcast and flooding
Packets transmission doesn’t involve any broadcasting technique.
No routing tables
Routing information base (RIB) is not stored on each node:
- Less memory and CPU requirements: Reduces cost of node devices
- No need to update RIB: Reduces traffic and energy consumption
Packets contains data only
No extra routing information in packets, only required payload included:
- Theoretically unlimited hops (nodes depth)
- Less transmission time – less interference and latency
- Reduced energy consumption
InaMesh connectivity
- Standard LoRa RF Module for nodesNo hardware re-engineering is required
- Standard LoraWAN gatewaysNo gateways equipment need to be changed or reconsidered. Optionally Inamesh low-cost gateways can be used
- InaMesh firmware / middlewareTurns your devices into InaMesh nodes
- InaMesh Network Management SystemInamesh NMS works on top on LoraWAN stack, no IT infrastructure changes are required
Upgrading LoraWAN
with InaMesh
Hybrid topology: Star + Mesh
- Keep existing LoraWAN gateways
- Add upgraded nodes with InaMesh protocol
- Extend your network or cover gaps
Upgrading Nodes with InaMesh
- Keep your hardware design
- Node application remains the same
- Replace LoraWAN middleware with InaMesh
- InaMesh enabled node is ready!
InaMesh and LoraWAN infrastructure
