Energy Saver
At a glance
Extend the battery life of your product by compressing data by reducing radio airtime
No cloud service modifications required
Fully open implementation
The IoT challenge
Battery-powered products must be fully optimized to reach a lifespan of 10 years or more. This can be challenging and requires careful parametrization of network modes (PSM, eDRX), hardware options (CPU deep sleep) and software tools. In order to be confident about device implementation, product manufacturers must take every possible step that is available.
Our solution
The Energy Saver allows you to reduce the duration of radio airtime by compressing data, which optimizes energy consumption and increases battery life significantly.
Energy Saver doesn’t require changes in your cloud services. The mechanism is based on Binary Conversion Language. The data is compressed already on the device before transmission. Since the device then needs to send less data, less energy is being used. These functions are optional available for integration in the open-sourced, C-based Device SDK.
The 1NCE OS Energy Saver is directly connected to the IoT Integrator. Before it gets forwarded to your cloud services, it decompresses the data and translates it back into readable data, e. g. JSON. No changes are required in your backend, the arriving data stays the same.
How it works
Energy consumption gets reduced by compressing the data before it gets send over the radio. Energy saver decompresses the data before publishing it to the cloud services.
Benefit
Longer lasting battery powered products with a software only solution
