Managing LoRaWAN traffic from public networks (Everynet)
You can connect your LoRaWAN devices to the cloud in minutes by using publicly
available LoRaWAN networks. AWS IoT Core for LoRaWAN now supports Everynet’s network coverage in
the US, UK, Ireland, and Spain. When using the public network, you'll be charged a
public network connectivity charge for each device every month. The pricing applies to
all AWS Regions where public network connectivity is offered. For information about
pricing for this feature, see the AWS IoT Core pricing page
Important
The public network is operated and provided as a service directly by Everynet.
Before using this feature, see the applicable AWS Service TermsDevEUI and JoinEUI will be replicated across regions
where AWS IoT Core for LoRaWAN is available.
AWS IoT Core for LoRaWAN supports the public LoRaWAN network according to the LoRa Alliance
specification for roaming, as described in LoRaWAN Backend Interfaces 1.0 Specification
Benefits of using a public LoRaWAN network
Your LoRaWAN devices can use a public network to connect to the cloud, which reduces the time to deployment, and reduces the time and cost that are required to maintain a private LoRaWAN network.
By using a public LoRaWAN network, you'll receive benefits such as coverage extension, running core without radio network, and coverage densification. This feature can be used to:
-
Provide coverage to devices when they move out of their home network, such as Device A in figure shown in the Public LoRaWAN network support architecture section.
-
Extend coverage to devices that don't have a LoRa gateway to connect to, such as Device B in figure shown in the Public LoRaWAN network support architecture section. The device can then use the gateway provided by the partner to connect to the home network.
Your LoRaWAN devices can use a public network to connect to the cloud using the roaming feature, which reduces the time to deployment, and reduces the time and cost that are required to maintain a private LoRaWAN network.
The following sections describe the public network support architecture, how public LoRaWAN network support works, and how to use this feature.
