Anatomy of an IoT System
The general configuration of an HalowIt system for multi-km area coverage is composed of:
- One or many remote base stations covering the entire area;
- Zero or one central base station connecting the remote base stations (PtM: Point-to-Multipoint) with Sector Antennas;
- Base stations have Internet Cloud access via the public 5G network or Broadband;
- Edge nodes (computation and data storage) at the mast base to improve response times and save bandwidth.
- The Internet Cloud that Analyze, Monitor, Store data from the IoT network.
The Halowit Base station is composed of the:
- AP-Halowit access point
- Omnidirectioanl antenna for the AP-Halowit
- Sector Antennas for greater range and capacity (option)
- Mast (option)
- Edge computer (option)
- 5G gateway (option)
- Solar kit for remote off-grid (option)
On the terrain, the edge IoT devices send or receive information and orders from:
- USB-Halowit connected to PC for audio/video as well as data stream data;
- M-Halowit to connect Sensors and Actuators;
- Halowit leMVP node with Sensors and Actuators (coming soon).
