LoRaWAN Network Server (Network Management, Device Activation and Data Routing System)

TrackCentral is a LoRaWAN Network Server (LNS) that connects LoRaWAN-compliant devices to application backends in a star of stars topology. It is the first of a new generation of LoRaWAN Network Servers specifically designed along the following guiding principles:

– Carrier-grade robustness and security in a true multi-tenancy architecture;

– Multi-dimensional scale-out both for devices and gateways to facilitate large-scale (country-wide) traditional tower-based deployments as well as hybrid deployments following the inside-out deployment model; and

– High degree of deployment flexibility in both dedicated and hosted environments (LoRa Network Server as a Service, LNSaaS) facilitating a broad range of customer requirements.

Gateways, so-called Stations in TrackCentral parlance, are connected to TrackCentral via standard, secured IP connections while devices use single-hop LoRaWAN communication to one or many Stations. TrackCentral, in turn, relays messages between Stations and any number of application backends. It further provides a network operator with all the network management functionality required for large-scale (country-wide) deployments.

Main Features:

  • LoRaWAN 1.0.3 and 1.1
  • LoRaWAN Class A and C; Class B when finalized by the LoRa Alliance
  • Activation-by-Personalization (ABP) and Over-the-Air-Activation (OTAA)
  • Multi-dimensional scale-out for inside-out hybrid deployments
  • Full multi-tenancy among network operators and application owners
  • LoRaWAN-compliant and interoperable Join Server
  • LoRaWAN roaming for public and private networks
  • Available on Cloud and/or On-Premise deployment
  • Provisioning of GWs and end-devices
  • Status and performance monitoring
  • RF information (RSSI, SNR, DR, CHANNEL, etc’)
  • Traffic information – GW and end-device views
  • Centralized and remote management
  • Message routing to customers’ applications
  • Global Map
