MONITORING, REMOTE CONTROL, REMOTE READING AND METROLOGICAL VERIFICATION SYSTEMS DESIGNED TO MEET AND SOLVE THE MOST DEMANDING NEEDS

MADDALENA POSITIONING ON THE

AMR/IOT MARKET

ACTUAL SCENARIO: TRADITIONAL AMR

MADDALENA HAS 15 YEARS EXPERIENCE IN SYSTEMS WITH THE FOCUS ON WATER, HEAT AND HCA END POINTS MADDALENA IS MEMBER OF: 868/915 MHz, W.M-BUS PROTOCOL (EN 13757), OMS

EN 13757 OPEN PROTOCOL STANTARD MOBILE READING IS THE MOST USED FIX WAN POSSIBLE BUT: LIMITED RANGE, SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF

INFRASTRUCTURE, HIGH DEPLOYMENT COST, NETWORK JUST FOR THE METERS AND MAINTENANCE IN CHARGE OF THE END CUSTOMER

UTILITY > MOBILE READING PREDOMINANT IN COMPARISON TO FIX NETWORK

(EUROPE SCENARIO) SUBMETERING > MOBILE AND FIX NETWORK READING

ACTUAL SCENARIO – M. OFFERING

NEW PARADIGMS: LPWAN AND IOT

NEEDS FOR CONNECTING OBJECTS TO INTERNET > IOT NEW RADIO TECHNOLOGIES FOR LPWAN: LORA, SIGFOX, NWAVE, NB-LTE, ETC… LOW POWER AND LONG RANGE FOR BATTERY OPERATED OBJECTS LIMITED INFRASTRUCTURE AND COST DEPLOYMENT FOR WAN METERING IS JUST ONE OF THE POSSIBLE VERTICALS BORN OF IOT TELCO OPERATORS AVAILABLE CONNECTIVITY MADDALENA APPROACH IN LPWAN AND IOT: FOCUS ON THE END POINTS, STARTING FROM THE WATER AND UTILITY SCENARIO EVOLUTION OF THE W.M-BUS OFFERING TO 169 MHz, AFNOR E17Z DIRECT ON FIELD TEST OF THE LPWAN TECHNOLOGIES AVAILABLE FLEXIBILITY ON THE OFFERING: MODULAR SOLUTIONS MADDALENA IS NOW MEMBER OF:
