Executive Summary
This whitepaper provides the reader with information about technology being developed that
aims to solving significant challenges related to addressing new applications, security,
scalability, and efficiency faced by utilities and other organizations rolling out large scale IoT
applications making use of DLMS application with LoRaWAN
®
networks.
The combination of DLMS application model and IP capable messaging with LoRaWAN
transport, leveraging on the upcoming SCHC Static Context Header Compression technology
delivers an interoperable, secure and scalable solution for data exchange with utility meters
and other IoT devices.
The paper describes the application and use cases targeted, the process of developing the
new technology and it outlines the DLMS LoRaWAN profile being developed with a view of
international standardization.
