In this era of changing clouds and technology, every small change is quietly brewing a huge power. Just as a drop of water can penetrate a stone, LoRaWAN smart water meter, as a drop of water in this technological flood, is also gradually changing our traditional knowledge and management wisdom of water resources in its unique way.
LoRaWAN smart water meter is composed of telemetry base meter, wireless communication module and other components. It can complete point-to-point data collection through the gateway, with low power consumption, long service life, and bidirectional data transmission, which provides a reliable guarantee for the accurate collection of real-time data data; the wireless water meter automatically uploads the data to the gateway every day, and the gateway automatically uploads the data to the network platform; it is simple in structure, easy to be maintained and replaced, and has no cable connection, which makes it easy to be installed quickly and conveniently.

LoRaWAN smart water meter technical advantages:
01 Low power consumption and service life
Low power consumption and low peak current demand, LoRaWAN data transmission and reception requires low current (less than 50 mA), which greatly reduces the power consumption of the device, and a single charge can give the device a service life of up to ten years, which greatly reduces support and maintenance costs.
02 Cost Savings
To find the romance that belongs to the beach alone, the evening sunshine records our unspoken words; also to feel the sentiment of Inaccessible, to see this last piece of pure land.
03 Positioning Service
Since signals from a specific device can be received by multiple gateways, the location of the device can be calculated based on the signal strength and/or signal arrival time at each base station, enabling network -based location services that can be used to track or geo-fence devices.
04 Deep penetration
LoRa radio modulation allows deep indoor penetration and adds the ability to reach sensors located underground at water or gas meters.
05 No need to obtain any frequency licenses
LoRaWAN networks are deployed in the free ISM bands (EU 868, AS 923, US 915 Mhz), allowing any service provider or company to deploy and operate a LoRaWAN network without having to obtain a license for any frequency.
06 Fast setup and commercialization
The combination of the LoRaWAN open standard with no-cost operating frequencies and low-cost base stations enables operators to roll out their networks in just a few months with minimal investment. Bidirectional communication fully supports a variety of use cases that require both uplink and downlink: for example, street lighting, smart irrigation, energy optimization or home automation.
07 One-stop management
The LoRaWAN network supports a wide range of vertical solutions, allowing service providers to use a single platform and standard to manage a variety of use cases such as smart buildings, precision agriculture, smart metering or smart cities.

In this era of smart water, LoRaWAN smart metering is leading water management to new heights with its unique appeal. It is not only a product of technological progress, but also a reflection of our pursuit of a better life. Let's wait and see how this perfect integration of technology and life will bring us a better future!
