Flexibility and quick reaction are key elements for modern and efficient IoT networks. Depending on infrastructure conditions and network coverage, one technology is not enough to run an IoT network efficiently. So, another solution is needed! Within a multi-stack, several communication technologies are combined for wireless data transmission. In this way, stacks can be selected to suit the use case. Once set up, the various protocols can be individually controlled during operation.

The agriculture sector is increasingly engaged in digitizing processes that are cumbersome and time-consuming to implement manually. In our use case, we focused on Smart Dairy Farming. In our video, we show how digitization can work in agriculture and how exactly Protocol Stacks from STACKFORCE can support this. The use case illustrates the benefits for the end user of networking devices on the farm.

We look back on a successful participation at Embedded World 2022. Together with other members, STACKFORCE represented the mioty® Alliance at mioty's own booth and presented its own solutions such as the mioty® Protocol Stack as Single or multi-Stack and the Wireless M-Bus-to-LPWAN Bridge.

The semiconductor shortage is currently being felt in many industries. However, opinions vary widely on the duration of the existing problem. Read the article to learn how to add IoT connectivity to your devices despite the chip shortage.

We take a closer look at the use case "smart swimming pool technology". The basic requirement for running a swimming pool is a permanently good water quality. In addition, information on the state of the water quantity is also an important indicator for a smooth bathing operation. What are the benefits of Smart Metering in the area of swimming pool technology and how can STACKFORCEs Protocol Stacks be used for this purpose?

The Wireless M-Bus Stack is the ideal partner for smart metering, sub-metering or smart city applications. In Part 1 of our article, we looked at the stack features, the different standards and the stack offering. Part 2 of the article now focuses on the hardware that can be used to enable devices to communicate with Wireless M-Bus and the options for product certification.

Do you want competitive products that are easy to install and maintain? Then it is time for you to take a closer look at our Wireless M-Bus Protocol Stack. Characterized by low energy consumption and excellent modularity combined with high functionality, the Wireless M-Bus Stack is the ideal partner for Smart Metering, Sub-Metering or Smart City applications.

The field of consumption data measurement can hardly avoid dealing with the topic of Wireless M-Bus (wM-Bus). For more than a decade, wM-Bus has been the standard used to implement remote meter reading of water, electricity, gas or heat meters. With a recognized standard like OMS, projects with wM-Bus can be implemented almost anywhere in the world.

Protocol Stacks have one goal: the automation of previously manually controlled operational processes. Using a microcontroller together with a wireless chip or radio interface, the Protocol Stack is integrated in an meter or sensor to enable it to transmit data via radio. But how exactly does it work to integrate a Protocol Stack into a device and what are the benefits of networking the devices?

Whether in the areas of smart metering, smart farming, smart industry, smart city or smart home – every company will sooner or later deal with the subject of digitalization. With our software solutions (Protocol Stacks), we aim to drive digital transformation for companies of all sizes and industries, and with our standard products we enable a simple and convenient introduction to equip your IoT network with connectivity.
