Talkpool and Shell perform IoT radio test on oil platform
Talkpool has performed an IoT radio test on a floating oil platform (Offshore Support Vessel) outside the Norwegian coast, together with Shell and Teekay Petrojarl.The goal of the project was to compare different IoT radio technologies to see which fits best in challenging radio conditions. The first type of connectivity under consideration was a meshed network based on wirelessHART-technology and the second type of connectivity that was tested was a LoRa network. The test was performed successfully and showed the long range and radio penetration effectiveness of LoRa technology in this
