HyDSMaaS: A Hybrid Communication Infrastructure with LoRaWAN and LoraMesh for the Demand Side Management as a Service
Seeking to solve problems in the power electric system (PES) related to exacerbated and uncontrolled energy consumption by final consumers such as residences, condominiums, public buildings and industries, electric power companies (EPC) are increasingly seeking new information and communication tech...
