Mesh Test Network
Wirepas mesh test network started operations within Tampere university Hervanta campus in Spring 2019. The initial network size was 100 nodes and ended up having a total of 350 nodes. There were two different kinds of network operation modes: low-latency and energy saving modes for the nodes. The nodes had several different kind of sensors including temperature, humidity, (air) pressure, carbon dioxide, proximity, brightness measurements. The devices are manufactored by several different companies, including Treon, Sensoan, Salcomp, Ruuvitag and Fujitsu. Currently the network has been removed due to renovation activities.
LoRa Test Network
The LoRa test network was implemented in 2018 and provides a campus-wide coverage area for the network. It is part of Digita’s nation-wide LoRaWAN network making students and researchers able to utilize the whole network.
