Functional Characteristics
Bi-Directional Communication
Our real bi-directional communication supports the UL (data feed) and DL (control signaling) transmissions from/to sensors at the time or when they are triggered by a user-defined event.
Multi-hop self-organizing network access
Flexible networking, blind area coverage, node convergence, network self-healing.
Multiple protocol version
A variety of protocol version can be customised to suit the needs in difference user scenarios.
Ultra-low power consumption
Allow deep sleep mode with very short wake-up delay. Battery life can be extended to 5-10 years.
Ultra-long range
Ultra-narrowband technology with high receiver sensitivity to assure stable transmission of 2-10km in urban environments. Longer range connectivity is possible in rural locations or where the propagation condition is ideal.
Flexible Data Rate and Spectrum
ZETA can operate in all license-free sub-1GHz ISM bands (e.g. 433, 470, 500, 787, 868, and 915MHz) and support data rate in the range of 100bps-50kbps. All ZETA devices are hardware agnostic in terms of the RF front-end and they could be easily adapted in order to operate in the licensed spectrum.
Multiple security mechanisms
Provide efficient security solutions for IoT applications. Support frequency hopping (over 50 channels), time-based authentication, MAC address filtering and optional AES-128 or LCG-based lightweight data encryption.
Best-in-Class Capacity
A combination of ZiFiSense innovations – a highly distributed network architecture with its own Mesh Access, virtual OFDMA and multi-hundreds Hz UNB channels – delivers 3 to 10 times extra capacity against the existing LPWA solutions.
