Your Network's Edge®
Summary Bullets:
While the public sector and government communication solutions aren’t usually considered the most advanced technology vertical, until recently it accounted for more Internet of Things (IoT) deployments than any other. Much of that activity has been focused on the smart city, where local governments—and their contracted agencies—have sought to use connectivity to monitor, track, or control city assets, with an overall goal of providing citizens with more efficient services.
Such multifunctional solutions for supporting LoRaWAN networks can be used for more than just standalone projects like parking or waste management. Increasingly, cities are approaching digitalization of public services and infrastructure in a more integrated way. In India, the Jamshedpur Utility Services Company has aggregated more than 100,000 sensors to integrate multiple data sources into a single Smart City Command Center. With a range of networked devices including street lights, utilities and parking meters, the enhanced insights gained help reduce the city’s energy use, increase efficiency for waste management, and make construction zones safer, among other benefits (including monetizing new services). It’s an approach other cities are taking more frequently as low power networks like LoRaWAN prove their advantages in cost and reach when it comes to supporting large scale projects for multiple functions, device types, or citizen services.
GlobalData is one of the largest data and insights solution providers in the world.
With growing competition from traditional rivals and hyperscalers, along with steady decline in ARPU (average revenue per user) CSPs (communication service providers) are increasingly looking for ways to deliver higher customer value, differentiate their offering from cost-intensive commodity. The typical way to go about this is by focusing on enhanced customer experience throughout customer journey while reducing internal costs to keep their prices competitive.
Anomaly detection is a crucial task in many fields, including cybersecurity, networking, finance, healthcare, and more. One of the major challenges in anomaly detection is the difficulty of clearly distinguishing between normal and abnormal behavior, as in some applications the boundary between the two is usually not precise and evolves over time. Therefore efforts are constantly being made to develop algorithms that will be as fast, robust and accurate as possible.
Private 5G is a critical building block in industrial digitalization: it introduces a large scale, low latency campus network that provides outdoor and indoor coverage and connects fixed and mobile endpoints to their mission-critical controllers and data analyzers in the campus cloud.
