Technology

The IQRF is one of the most advanced, secure, easy-to-use and reliable wireless mesh technologies on the IoT market. It enables you to quickly develop your solution, make it fully interoperable with the IQRF Ecosystem, easily connect it to your favorite platforms such as Raspberry PI, Arduino or UP Board and effectively deploy it.

IQRF Ecosystem

IoT is like a puzzle. You need a lot of pieces of the puzzle fitting one to the other to be able to effectively realize different IoT projects. IQRF Ecosystem is a set of interoperable end devices, gateways, clouds, software, mobile apps and services that you can link together to create your IoT solution quickly and effectively.

IQRF Technology

IQRF is a matured, low power, simple, secure and interoperable wireless mesh technology that enables you to make your device wireless and part of the IQRF Ecosystem very quickly and effectively.

Positioning

The current wireless market is very fragmented. Choose IQRF in case you need to cover a large building or a neighbourhood (indoor and outdoor) to reliably control large network of end-devices. Your development and deployment will be very fast and effective and your network reliable, robust and secure.

Ecosystem Architecture

Each certified product in the IQRF Ecosystem has a unique HWPID which specifies manufacturer and type of device. Necessary data about all certified products, their upgrade packages and drivers are stored in the on-line IQRF Alliance Repository. When any certified product is bonded to a GW or cloud, all data could be downloaded using standardized REST API. This enables very easy deployment.

Interoperability Standard


Technical Committee of the IQRF Alliance defines the IQRF Interoperability Standard which includes standard DPA Commands so devices are not only compatible (working in one network) but also interoperable (controlled by the same commands). The standard is designed in the way to enable easy integration, fast development and effective deployment.

Interoperability Certification

To ensure interoperability of IQRF devices the IQRF Alliance provides the IQRF Interoperability certification. The certification process is very simple, straightforward and cost effective. Once your product is certified, it is listed in the IQRF Repository and Marketplace. This helps you to effectively promote, sell and deploy your products.

transceivers

Transceivers

There are almost half million IQRF modules running in hundreds of projects around the world since 2008.

  • Bands: 868/916 MHz
  • Range: 500m (line of sight)
  • Interface: SPI, UART, IQRF
  • Network: 239 routers/nodes, 240 hops
  • Download: Datasheet
simple

Simple

SIM card connectivity, UART and SPI interface, integrated mesh networking, data control and other great features enable you to have your first prototype up and running within a couple of days.

Low power

Ultra-low power

Low power consumption of transceivers and flexible network structure enables the use of battery operated devices for many years.

  • Standard RX: 12.3 mA
  • Low power RX: 233 µA
  • Deep Sleep: 100 nA

Secure

Security of the IQRF is based on AES 128 and is designed in three layers – access, network and user encryption. You need to know 16B password to join the network, networking packets are automatically encrypted plus you can encrypt your data.

Interoperable

Transceiver provides full compatibility so your device can communicate in one network with devices of other transceiver based products. To make your device interoperable you should follow the IQRF Standard available here.

Reliable mesh networking

Patented Directed Flooding protocol ensures a robust and reliable wireless communication even in harsh RF environments.

Mature

There are almost half million IQRF modules running in hundreds of projects around the world since 2008. Many features were implemented into the IQRF based on project and customer requests. Thanks to this you can rely on IQRF performance, easy-to-use and advanced features.

Gateways

GW is a device that controls an IQRF network and is connected to the internet through different interfaces such as ETH, GSM, WiFi, etc. There is a portfolio of indoor and outdoor GWs on the IQRF Marketplace. You can also create your own GW from any Linux machine using the IQRF Daemon.

Clouds and Mobile Apps

IQRF Daemon enables you to connect your GW to any cloud (Microsoft Azure, IBM Bluemix, AWS, private cloud, etc.) using standardized MQTT JSON commands. You can also control your IQRF network with a ready mobile app.

Development sets

IQRF IoT-Starter-Kit enables you to quickly evaluate the IQRF technology, connect different interoperable end devices, develop your own GW, get the GW connected to a MS Azure or other clouds and control everything with a mobile app.

Software Development Kit

Software Development Kit

IQRF SDK is an open source code available on Github that enables you to make any Linux machine an IQRF GW within matter of hours. Link

IQRF IDE

The IQRF IDE offers professional environment for fast and easy application development and network service.
