Overview
The TWR-METRO-KIT metropolitan area
network (MAN) development kit enables you
to quickly build a 6LoWPAN-compliant smart
object network out of the box and integrate
it with your own hardware for network
performance evaluation in a real environment
for Internet of Things or machine-to-machine
application solutions. MANs are ideal for
demanding applications such as “last mile”
smart metering communication and street
lighting control. A MAN is typically defined
by extreme reliability over several miles while
serving thousands of nodes per edge router
or data concentrator with each node capable
of meshing at dozens of hop levels deep.
The kit contains two wireless IP addressable
end nodes that are line or battery powered,
as well as a wireless edge router which
connects to a PC or notebook, forming a
solid basis to begin network evaluation and
development. The kit can be easily expanded
to support up to 20 end nodes. Each end
node is built with a Nivis Smart Object radio
module containing a Freescale Kinetis K
series MCU based on the ARM
core and an MC12311 sub-GHz smart radio
transceiver with up to +15 dBm of native
®
Cortex™-M4
transmit power for miles of range without
the need for RF power amplification. At the
core of the edge router is a QorIQ P1025
power-based MPU running Nivis edge router
software.
The MAN development kit is based entirely
on IEEE and open Internet communication
standards. The application, transport and
networking layers of the smart object stack
TWR-ELEV
Metropolitan Area Network Kit Edge Router
are based on the latest Internet Engineering
Task Force (IETF) standards which include
CoAP, UDP, IPv6/6LoWPAN, RPL and ICMP.
The application layer payloads adhere to
EXI/XML encoding. The radio uses the new
IEEE
hopping (TSCH) MAC and IEEE 802.15.4g
PHY specifications.
