Description of Activities

 The objective is to present LoRa mesh networks to the IRTF GAIA WG of the IETF. GAIA seeks technologies to connect the unconnected world, and with IRTF GAIA as a vehicle, we seek to start the standardisation activity of this new technology. 

Fellow's country
Impact on SMEs (6th Open Call)
The contribution made within this fellowship adds value to the development of LoRa mesh network technology. SMEs may then feel more confident in adopting the technology.
Impact on society (6th Open Call)
The technology provides a permanent low-cost and low-energy routed multi-hop communication network with moderate data rates. LoRa mesh networks allow a new kind of distributed IoT applications in the long range IoT layer. One of the application areas of LoRa mesh networks is the emerging field of distributed embedded machine learning. LoRa mesh networks are not yet standardised. To initialise standardisation, we will introduce the LoRaMesh networks as a design and reference implementation.

Joachim Koss

Description of Activities

My fellowship contributes to analysing the ICT (IoT) Standards landscape in order to find gaps to be filled by future standardisation work and also to identify existing standards, which manufacturers and service providers of connected products or related services may apply in order for their products being compliant to the new Regulation (EU) 2023/2854 (European Data Act).

Fellow's country
Open Call Topics
Impact on SMEs (4th Open Call)
The Data Act applies to the group of holders of data (not only but also SMEs) acting on the European market irrespective of the place of establishment of those manufacturers and providers.
Impact on society (4th Open Call)
Since the addressed existing or to be developed standards enable particularly semantic interoperability across the IoT, they also provide cross domain and cross-vendor IoT semantic interoperability for exchanging data with common understanding of its meaning. This will become increasingly important as greater quantities of data are generated and shared across the IoT. It opens new market opportunities in the domains of e.g. Healthcare, Smart Grid, Smart Metering, Intelligent Transport Systems, Industrial Automated Systems, and Smart Cities, which depend on collecting and processing data. With that, it directly supports the strong European goal of the “digital single market”.

Impact on SMEs (2nd Open Call)
Elaboration of use cases for technology and emerging technology can help SMEs exploit their work in multiple application areas and help ensure that their products are interoperable and accessible.
Impact on society (2nd Open Call)
IoT is a pervasive technology used across many industries and increasingly it is benefitting consumers by providing access to many systems and facilities from home. It is important that the current moves to online government, banking, shopping etc does not create a digital divide but includes all people.

Description of Activities

A successful standardisation of Ambient IoT will enable SMEs to create devices, applications and services that use Ambient-IoT-enabled chipsets. For instance, novel applications for inventory management are specific battery-less sensors for the use in industrial IoT.

Description of Activities

This work is addressing the demand of harmonised standards for radio regulations certification. In particular it is addressing RFID in the UHF frequency bands 865-868 and 915-921 MHz. 

Fellow's country
Open Call Topics
Impact on SMEs (4th Open Call)
SMEs are major contributors in the RFID industry, contributing to in particular tags, readers and system integration. All of them require harmonised standards. Therefore, the work and content of ISO/IEC 18000-63 is very important to them.
Impact on society (4th Open Call)
This activity is the continuation of the ISO/IEC JTC1 SC31 WG4 "Radio communications" work to serve the international and European industry and society to enhance standards to better serve the needs of Europe and the whole world and in particular to provide standards that are in particular relevant for IoT and DPP.
RFID (UHF RFID, RAIN RFID) are a major used technology for the supply chain and production to reduce overproduction and waste. Furthermore, it is a technology for the Digital Product Passport, which is strongly supported by the European Commission for sustainable product regulations.

Impact on SMEs (4th Open Call)
Trialog is a SME so we are directly impacted by my contribution. Trialog was the coordinator of the ACCRA H2020 project (robots for ageing), which is now finished. We follow up with standard activities on robotics. In addition, the standards under consideration will benefit all the Smart Robotics and Internet of Robotic Things ecosystem, including SMEs. SME can develop tools and applications compliant with those standards.

Impact on society (4th Open Call)
Accelerating the use of digital twins, as the existence of the semantic repository allows the digital twin to manage semantics while the physical twin is managing data. This methodology will ensure a consistent continuum between the physical twin and the digital twin.
Impact on society (6th Open Call)
The following impacts are identified at a general level:
The Internet of Things (IoT) addresses many societal challenges including climate change, resource and energy efficiency and ageing.
In the emerging IoT economy, voluntary global standards can accelerate adoption, drive competition, and enable cost-effective introduction of new technologies.
Standardisation facilitates the interoperability, compatibility, reliability, security and efficiency of operations on a global scale among different technical solutions, stimulating industry innovation and providing greater clarity to technology evolution.
Interoperability between IoT networks operated by different companies along the value chain opens up opportunities to address EU Policy objectives, e.g. greater resource efficiency for a more circular economy, sustainable and responsible supply chains through transparency and traceability, and others

Impact on SMEs (6th Open Call)
The work of the IETF ROLL WG significantly impacts European SMEs by developing internationally recognised open standards, such as RPL. RPL presents multiple open-source implementations has been tested through extensive simulations and continuous evaluations. Also, RPL meets all their required capabilities, such as energy-efficient mechanisms, which are pivotal for sustainable growth.
Moreover, the continuous enhancements by the ROLL WG are vital for the evolution and adaptation of new use cases pertinent to the European context. These improvements ensure robust interoperability and adherence to security standards, both critical for SMEs operating in the dynamic European market. This commitment to excellence and relevance is applied in the standard reviews carried out within the IETF Directorates, such as IoT, Routing, and General-Area sectors. Such endeavours underscore our dedication to supporting European SMEs' technological advancement and operational efficiency.
