2023: Benefits of IoT Implementation in Housing and Utilities

Housing and communal services (housing and communal services) are an integral part of our daily life, providing housing, comfort and safety. It includes maintaining homes, providing utilities, maintaining sanitary standards and more, making our lives more convenient and secure. The introduction of digital technologies is of great importance in this area. They allow for more efficient resource management, which is important to lower utility costs for consumers.

One of the modern products actively introduced into the field of housing and communal services was IoT, or "Internet of Things." Read more in the article Advantages of implementing IoT in housing and communal services.

IoT What a Manager Needs to Know

Internet of Things, aka IoT (Internet of Things). What is it? How is this different from M2M? How can this be used? How much is it? How to implement? Read more here.

MGTS began to put sensors on the hatches to protect cables and invests 1 billion rubles in this

At the end of May 2021, MGTS began putting wireless sensors on the hatches to protect the cable network. The company intends to extend this technology to 50-75 thousand hatches out of 150 thousand available to the telecom operator. Read more here.

2019: Tele2, Rostelecom and Nokia tested IoT for housing and communal services

On April 15, 2019, Tele2 announced that, together with Rostelecom and Nokia, it tested solutions based on the Internet of Things (IoT) for housing and communal services. The tests took place in Moscow on the basis of the Tele2 LTE network. The technology will allow energy sales companies to reduce the cost of data collection, and users to conveniently pay for electricity.

According to the company, the test data network was deployed on the basis of the Tele2 infrastructure using Nokia technical solutions. Readings from the meters were transmitted to server energy sales companies, modems with built-in SIM cards Rostelecom were used during the tests. The infrastructure made it possible to combine virtualized cloudy the Nokia packet core, the resources of the Tele2 radio access networks transport and the Rostelecom network with the final equipment of domestic suppliers.

The pilot zone used NB-IoT technology, which connects a large number of IoT devices through the Tele2 radio network.

The partners established the possibility of cost-effective connection of electric meters operating through radio access in licensed ranges, analyzed the features of various elements of the IoT solution and the requirements for high-quality operation of devices in conditions of dense urban development. The test participants also identified the most effective ways to deploy the solution on the infrastructure of Tele2 and Rostelecom.

Tele2 has built LTE networks throughout the territory of its presence, allowing the deployment of NB-IoT. Digital technology is changing the electricity industry, and tests like the ones just completed are accelerating the digitalization of the industry. At the end of 2018, Tele2 and its partners conducted the first tests of NB-IoT technologies for the energy sector, this time we showed its capabilities on a large number of metering devices. As IoT evolves, devices will merge into entire ecosystems, so our future projects with partners are aimed at applications in a wide variety of areas.

The NB-IoT standard is designed to meet the needs of IoT devices. As of April 2019, it allows you to connect hundreds of thousands of devices at the same time, and energy saving technologies and low power consumption ensure that the devices work for 10 years from one battery. The signal of the NB-IoT network penetrates well into hard-to-reach places such as basements and underground parking lots, which opens up the potential for servicing up to ten thousand devices in the coverage area of one base station. The technical features of the NB-IoT standard allow you to create and develop various industrial and consumer scenarios for a wide range of industries: smart buildings, smart industrial production, optimization of housing and communal services infrastructure, environmental protection, improving road safety and many others.
