LoRa, Wireless RF, Internet of Things
据中华人民共和国工业和信息化部称,中国 5G 网络覆盖范围持续扩展。5G 网络的规模化部署,进一步赋能物联网生态,将物联网应用场景拓展到制造业、农业、医疗、安全、智慧城市等多个领域。
Milesight, one of Semtech’s LoRa® ecosystem collaborators, has launched a 5G AIoT Network Camera, which not only innovatively integrates 5G, AI and IoT technologies, but also can simultaneously support 5G and network connectivity via LoRaWAN®.
Figure 1: Milesight’s 5G AIoT HD Network Camera
星纵物联的 5G AIoT 高清网络摄像机内置 5G 和利用 LoRaWAN 网络连接的网关模块。无需部署复杂的线缆和光纤,即可实现通过 5G 网络进行视频数据的无限传输。同时,网络摄像机采用高性能的 Semtech LoRa Core™ SX1302,数据处理能力强,运行稳定。通过创新地集成 5G、人工智能和物联网技术,网络摄像机设备为各种各样用例监控。
The 5G AIoT HD Network Camera can realize dual applications based on one machine. For example, it can be used as an HD Network Camera to transmit high-definition video data and as a network gateway utilizing LoRaWAN to collect corresponding IoT sensor data (e.g., environmental sensor data; smart wall socket, smart socket and PIR sensor data; alarm data; fire sensor data such as flooding, audible and visual alarm, combustible gas, etc.). Additionally, should the sensor data trigger an early warning, the system can make secondary confirmation based on synchronous linkage of related video images.
Specifically, the LoRa-enabled gateway module supports the collection of sensor data, whereas the 5G module can be used for live streaming video, rapid analysis and decision-making to realize one-time deployment and transmission of the data stream and video stream, thus reducing equipment and deployment costs. By virtue of AI technology, it is in a position to realize diversified video content analysis functions, such as regional intrusion and departure, advanced motion detection, region entrance/existing, loitering, line crossing, tamper detection, etc. The Network Camera supports multiple frequency bands around the world, including CN470, RU864, IN865, EU868, US915, AU915, KR920, AS923, AS923-2, and MQTT / HTTP / HTTPS connection mode, which are beneficial to realizing the quick connection with various IoT platforms.
With the support of Semtech’s LoRa technology, this solution effectively solves several pain points of the HD camera industry:
The integration of 5G communication and LoRaWAN promotes system independence, requiring less human intervention
The built-in gateway using LoRaWAN enables data accuracy, avoiding abnormal data reporting caused by hazy weather and image occlusion.
Given the limited internal space of the Network Camera, the synchronous built-in of 5G and network gateway module using LoRaWAN creates mutual interference between 5G and LoRa wireless signals. Therefore, it was necessary to plan, modify and improve the internal structural design of the product. During the development process, Semtech provided multi-faceted support for Milesight, including product design feedback promoting the effective integration of the two technologies in one device.
Milesight facilitated COVID-19 prevention by utilizing the 5G AIoT HD Network Camera, intelligent sensors and terminal equipment, addressing the management problems of a series of quarantine areas including residential communities, centralized-quarantine hotels and quarantine wards. For instance, the Milesight WS301 wire-free magnetic contact switch can provide secondary confirmation of quarantine ward conditions through real-time video via linkage with the 5G AIoT HD Network Camera. In case of health issues experienced by quarantined individuals, it can ensure rapid assistance through the Milesight WS101 Smart Button located in the quarantine room.

Water level monitoring based on traditional field measurement can be non-intuitive and time consuming. While AI technology has been widely incorporated, monitoring systems are prone to inaccurate gauging of water levels due to dirty depth meters and floating objects. Milesight has solved these problems through an early warning monitoring system based on LoRaWAN, which can be applied to diversified scenarios including flood risk monitoring and overflow alarm.
In this system, Milesight EM500-SWL submersible Water Level sensor can monitor the water level under a bridge via real-time linkage with the deployed Milesight 5G AIoT HD Network Camera. In the case of an abnormal water level alarm, it can confirm conditions using real-time video. In an emergency scenario, it can prevent serious losses due to floods and other accidents by enabling rapid decision making.

By deploying the 5G AIoT camera and sensors, Milesight enables intelligent unmanned retail scenarios via real-time viewing of live HD video, air quality and temperature monitoring and equipment management. The system can also assess customer presence over time, providing valuable analysis data for business management.
Combining a series of devices including an indoor environment sensor, intelligent wall socket, one-click alert, and fire safety sensor, the 5G AIoT HD Network Camera provides safe and comfortable conditions for patients and also reduces relevant operating costs, thus improving management efficiency.
Of the system, Leon Jiang, vice president of Milesight, said, "Milesight 5G AIoT HD Network Camera is an innovative HD Network Camera that integrates 5G, AI and IoT technologies and can simultaneously support 5G and LoRaWAN. In the application of IoT, not only can clients utilize it to apply 5G technology to realize real-time and efficient transmission of high-definition video images, but they can also use it as a network gateway using LoRaWAN to collect sensor data. Moreover, based on the upgrading of the original camera, it can provide corresponding solutions for video transmission and sensor data acquisition, thus reducing equipment and deployment costs. More importantly, conforming to the AIoT market trend characterized by the fusion of various communication technologies, it is capable of simplifying the deployment and enriching the intelligent applications suitable for various scenarios."
Semtech is pleased to support Milesight to develop the 5G AIoT HD Network Camera. With the increasing market demand for LoRa technology, we expect to launch additional wireless deployment solutions enabled by LoRa and LoRaWAN in the future to further innovate the IoT space. Semtech will continue to provide strong support for ecosystem collaborators to boost the development of products that fulfil the market’s technical demands.
