LEZ – Low Emission Zones for smart cities and urban areas

/in , , , /by

Zonas de Bajas Emisiones (ZBE) para ciudades inteligentes y áreas urbanas

 

A low emissions zone (LEZ) is an urban area in which vehicle access, circulation and parking restrictions are applied to improve air quality and mitigate greenhouse gas emissions , in accordance with the classification of vehicles by its emissions level in accordance with the provisions of the current General Vehicle Regulations.

Law 7/2021, of May 20, on climate change and energy transition establishes that municipalities with more than 50,000 inhabitants, municipalities with more than 20,000 inhabitants when the limit values ​​of the pollutants regulated in Royal Decree 102/2011 are exceeded. , of January 28 and the island territories will adopt sustainable urban mobility plans before 2023.

These zones are delimited by specific signs and apply access, circulation and parking restrictions to vehicles according to their environmental label.

Matrix Electrónica in collaboration with our partners offers a range of products to efficiently manage EPZs, improving their effectiveness and efficiency.

Our products include:

  • Access control: Switches and sensors identify vehicles that comply with restrictions and allow them access to the EPZ.
  • Mobility management: Sensors and industrial computers collect traffic data in EPZs and optimise vehicle circulation.
  • Air quality: Sensors collect data on air quality in the EPZ and assess the impact of restrictions..

Standard Wireless Technologies for Smart Buildings

SOLUTIONS BASED ON LORAWAN DEVICES

LoRa is a wireless modulation technique derived from Chirp Spread Spectrum (CSS) technology. Encodes information into radio waves using “chirping” pulses

LoRa is an ideal technology for connections over long distances, where information is communicated that involves little volume of data and the sensors do not have network power.

Due to its high penetration and low cost of implementation, this technology is increasingly used to transmit information inside buildings.

LoRaWAN is a Medium Access Control (MAC) layer protocol built on top of LoRa Modulation. It is a software layer that defines how devices use LoRa hardware.

A typical LoRaWAN network architecture is made up of nodes and gateways .

Characteristics

  • Ultra low power  – LoRaWAN end devices are optimized to operate in low power mode and can last up to 10 years on a single coin cell battery
  • Long range  – LoRaWAN Gateways can transmit and receive signals at a distance of 10 kilometers in rural areas and up to 3 kilometers in dense urban areas.
  • Deep indoor penetration  – LoRaWAN networks can provide deep indoor coverage and easily cover multi-story buildings.
  • License free spectrum  – We do not need to pay a license for the use of the frequency spectrum to implement a LoRaWAN network.
  • High capacity  – LoRaWAN Network Servers can handle millions of messages from thousands of Gateways
  • End-to-end security – LoRaWAN ensures secure communication between the end device and the Network Server using AES-128 encryption.
  • Firmware updates over the air  – Firmware can be updated remotely for a single end device or group of end devices.
  • Low cost  – Minimal infrastructure, low cost end nodes and open source software.
  • Certification program – The “LoRa Alliance certification program” certifies end devices and gives end users the confidence that the devices are reliable and compliant with the LoRaWAN specification.

DIANA, SEAT S.A.’s autonomous prototype and Webdyn’s MTX-Router-EOS

/in , /by

DIANA is the autonomous car pilot project promoted by SEAT S.A., in collaboration with the Centro Tecnolóxico de Automoción de Galicia (CTAG).

DIANA is an innovation project to test autonomous driving functions in anticipation of Advanced Driving Assistance Systems (ADAS).

The vehicle has been created on the basis of a SEAT Leon and is equipped with 5 lidar sensors, 5 radars, 6 cameras, 12 ultrasounds and 8 computers that give it a 360º vision. These elements generate environmental data that are processed in milliseconds and sent to a module where the location is stored. Thus, the car knows its location, what obstacles are in its environment and is able to decide where it has to go and autonomously execute the actions on the steering wheel, brakes, accelerator and gear change.

Matrix Electronica contributes to this project with the MTX-Router-EOS from Webdyn, our own IoT brand.

The MTX-Router-EOS is a router developed for industrial applications, it features dual SIM, 3x Ethernet, VPN client and 3 antennas included (another one for GPS optional)
