Integrated development is familiar to many.
On the policy level, you may have seen urban-rural integrated development, integration of party building and business, and free trade zone integration; on the industrial level, you may have heard of industrial integration, integration of digital economy and real economy, etc. Today, we want to explore integrated development from the perspective of wireless communication.
To break through scene limitations, integrating wireless communication technologies such as 5G, 4G, WiFi, NB-IoT, LoRa, and Zigbee to build a seamless coverage integrated three-dimensional network has become a hot topic in current industry applications.
Integrated networking solutions should be born out of market needs,
solving the fragmentation problem of the Internet of Things.
The Internet of Things is a highly fragmented market that requires various high, medium, and low-speed connection technologies to meet the needs of different application scenarios. No single communication technology can adapt to all industry applications or meet all industry demands, thus customized wireless networking integration solutions should emerge from the market; combining multiple communication technologies in more application scenarios can achieve better cost-effectiveness, making wireless networking solutions the first choice for industry applications.
For example, in smart park scenarios, smoke detection data transmission is achieved through NB-IoT narrowband communication technology; Cat1 networking is used for remote circuit switch control to ensure electrical safety; data transmission for vehicle/facial recognition at park entrances and exits is completed via 4G networks; 5G is used for remote control of unmanned delivery within the park; LoRa base stations are deployed in underground parking lots to achieve data transmission for underground vehicle navigation…
Similar applications are also starting to be popularized in smart coal mines, smart healthcare, and smart oceans.
While the application of 5G can solve long-standing underground communication issues, currently, 5G also faces challenges such as high costs for base stations and micro base stations, and short network coverage distances. Through 4G+UWB+WiFi 6 integrated networking, 4G primarily handles communication, WiFi 6 is responsible for data transmission, and UWB is used for positioning, while integrating the ground 4G core network with the 5G core network to achieve integrated communication between the mine’s 5G and 4G.
To address network deployment issues in the healthcare sector, leveraging the new generation of wireless Wi-Fi 6 technology, integrating ZigBee, Bluetooth, LoRaWAN, RFID, and other IoT wireless communication technologies and IoT radio frequency technologies, a wireless + IoT integrated networking deployment solution is launched, realizing a unified network and platform for mobile healthcare and IoT applications.
Offshore wind farms require a fully deployed wireless communication system to achieve signal coverage in construction areas, meeting the communication needs of on-site personnel and the real-time monitoring needs of management. However, offshore wind farms are often located dozens of kilometers from the shore, in remote areas where operator signals cannot fully cover. In such cases, a mixed networking approach using 4G and satellite communication can meet the wireless network coverage and usage requirements of offshore wind farms, as well as the transmission requirements of wind farm data in emergency situations.
Cellular and non-cellular communication technologies are forming a complementary and deeply integrated trend to meet fragmented industry demands. Based on the advantages of non-cellular communication technologies, they complement cellular communication in adverse scenarios for data collection, combined with 5G/4G/NB-IoT to form a fusion service capability of cellular + non-cellular networks, achieving full network coverage. Meanwhile, with the rapid development of satellite communication technology, the integration of ground communication technology and satellite communication technology has also become an industry application trend.
Focusing on networking capabilities,
empowering the intelligent transformation and upgrading of industries.
Under the trend of building a seamless coverage integrated network, Four Faith focuses on the core technologies of the Internet of Things, leveraging its wireless networking capabilities to provide professional solutions to the fragmentation problem.
As an IoT device and solution provider, Four Faith has launched industrial wireless communication terminals based on mobile communication technology since its inception, building remote communication capabilities. Four Faith’s marketing director, Zhang Zhikun, mentioned that Four Faith possesses hybrid networking capabilities and faces the market with various networking methods.
Currently, Four Faith has formed strong technological advantages in communication, data transmission, and signal processing, focusing on product development based on industrial IoT application needs, successfully developing industrial wireless routers, wireless data transmission terminals, edge computing gateways, communication modules, etc., forming a core of industrial IoT communication products that extend downward to sensing and control products and upward to smart cloud platforms and application systems. To date, it has served thousands of enterprises, with businesses spread across hundreds of countries worldwide.
While independently researching and producing hardware devices, Four Faith is also focused on building a software ecosystem, centered on IoT big data platforms, networking devices, and sensing devices, deeply integrating cutting-edge technologies such as big data, cloud computing, and AI IoT, providing one-stop intelligent IoT solutions in various fields such as 5G + industry applications, smart water management, smart irrigation, smart agriculture, smart firefighting, geological disaster informationization, smart power, and smart environmental protection, promoting the intelligent transformation and upgrading of industries.
Against the backdrop of multiple guiding notices jointly issued by the Ministry of Water Resources and the Ministry of Finance, guiding counties to carry out water system connectivity and comprehensive rectification of rural water systems, Four Faith has launched a water management solution to effectively monitor the hydrological conditions of water systems, setting up monitoring items based on different monitoring points, constructing multiple stations including water quality monitoring stations, flow level monitoring stations, video monitoring stations, gate control stations, and broadcasting stations. The collected flow, water quality, and water level data are transmitted to the data center through multiple methods such as 4G/5G/fiber/NB for processing, analysis, and application, achieving functions such as hydrological data collection, early warning, gate control, and early warning broadcasting.
Under the strong promotion of national policies, smart firefighting has rapidly developed, and the integration of firefighting and security has become an inevitable trend of development, with unprecedented opportunities for integrated fire and security systems. To this end, Four Faith’s own technical accumulation fully utilizes security systems to enhance the interlinked control management capabilities of fire alarm systems, striving to create a comprehensive, full-lifecycle urban-level fire safety prevention and control network.
Every time Four Faith expands a new track, it is based on a certain understanding of the industry from previous implementation projects, continuously practicing and experimenting, ultimately intervening in the field in the form of wireless networking.
In the future, Four Faith will continue to adhere to technology innovation as the core, relying on its full-stack technical strength, complete industry solutions, and rich industry experience, dedicated to becoming a product-driven IoT platform enterprise, strengthening product combinations, continuously launching competitive products and vertical industry IoT application solutions into the market, accelerating the digital transformation of vertical industries.
