Next-Generation IoT

The road of Innovation

SURFING THE IOT TRANSFORMATION

The 5G revolution has rapidly changed the entire digital ecosystem, especially from a Network Transformation perspective.
The next generation IoT will play a crucial role in creating new B2B/B2B2X applications and generating new modular platforms integrated into a “Network-as-a-Service” paradigm, relying thus into an “IoT-as-a-Service” model.

The distributed use of IoT sensors and embedded nodes on 5G will be integrated into machines and remote controlled by the network with extremely low latency communications.
Moreover, it will enable new applications and use cases leveraging on a massive amount of collected data.

In this new scenario, Net Reply is approaching the 4th wave of IoT, known also as massive Machine Type Communications (mMTC), focused on “Internet of Everything” as a 5G “killer application” of the main next generation network features and capabilities, such as E2E Network Slicing, Multi-Access Edge Computing, SDN Orchestration, RAN Intelligence, AI&MLOps and CT/CD Service Automation.

IOT IN THE 5G ERA


The fifth generation will be a revolution in multiple scenarios, providing enhancements in terms of throughput, latency, reliability and introducing new powerful features, such as network slicing, that allows the creation of multiple logical isolated sub networks, leveraging on the same physical infrastructure.

Therefore, one 5G network will support multiple macro-IoT connectivity segments, all on the same infrastructure, where each of them will be driven by different purposes and requirements in terms of latency, transmission speed, reliability and coverage.

Thus, IoT will be introduced not only to Massive and Broadband services, but also to Critical scenarios such as automotive, traffic safety & control, so for all the time-critical applications, which expect ultra-low latency and very high reliability.

Moreover, the roll out of 5G is going to enable the interoperation between lots of new devices, external and not, creating an ecosystem of cooperating services which can be customized ad hoc to support every specific use case.

THE IOT ECOSYSTEM

Most of the IoT models are based on common principles that can be summarized into the following model. Where devices (sensors) recognize certain conditions, measure the data and send them to a database via network exploiting one of the several communication protocols available.

Data are examined with respect to the specific context (i.e., through ML algorithms, or AI), to trigger operational procedures, such as starting a command or sending an alarm.

IoT is effecting our lives in many ways and it could really benefit from AI. Some examples of AI leveraging on IoT applications include drones, smart cities, industrial robots, smart homes and healthcare.
