Company


๏ Internet of Things (IoT) - Kevin Ashton, "That 'Internet of Things' Thing", RFID Journal, 22 June 2009

- ITU, ”Internet of Things Global Standards Initiative”- The Internet of Things (IoT) is the network of physical objects or "things" embedded with

electronics, software, sensors, and network connectivity, which enables these objects to collect and exchange data.

- Cisco thinks about 50 billion devices will be connected by 2020

๏ Machine-to-machine (M2M) - Direct communication between devices using any communications channel,

including wired and wireless

- In 1977, first commercial “smart grid” and “smart meter” by Metretek, Inc.

- Typical application: telemetry, industrial, automation, SCADA, MQTT

Zetakey IoT Gateway - Key Functions

Technology

Company


๏ Protocol Translation - Edge devices to gateway communication

- BLE, ZigBee, Z-wave, SigFox, LoRa and future protocols

- Gateway to Internet (Private / Public Cloud) communication

- Ethernet, Cellular, Satellite

- Data format translation (packets, units, sensitivity)

- Interoperability

๏ Data Processing - Schema Detection

- Cleansing, Normalisation

- Filtering

- Packaging (concentrating, aggregating)


IoT Gateway - Key Functions

Technology

Company


๏ On-board Application - More than only execute commands from remote servers

- Run local application logic for near edge analysis, rule-action engine

- Update of on-board application based on

- Support Ad-hoc, override

๏ Security and Privacy - Security

- Mandatory requirement

- All layers / End-to-end (device - connectivity - server - application)

- Standard-based cryptography(TLS, SSL, PKI) instead of proprietary

- Application level (Authorisation, authentication, multi-factors)

- Privacy

- Owner/gateway able to select application providers, decide whether to grant the right to vendors



Technology

Company


๏ Device Provisioning - Manage dynamic edge network conditions (on-the-fly join/exit)

- Device configuration - enable or disable functionality

- Software updates

- Fault Management

๏ Collaboration - Abstraction of IoT device hardware and application

- Separation of Concerns(hardware, firmware, middleware, application)

- Application owner no need to worry about hardware

- Foster IoT vendor ecosystem, avoid vendors lock-in

- Able to “Digital Twins” to build the simulation environment

- Based on current web technologies and standards
