Description
Technical Architecture of the Wi-Fi HaLow Enabled Transportation and Logistics System
GAO Tek Inc.’s Wi-Fi HaLow Enabled Transportation and Logistics System integrates Wi-Fi HaLow technology with robust data management tools to optimize connectivity, data tracking, and analytics for modern transportation and logistics. The architecture comprises three key layers:
Edge Devices and Sensors:
- Equipped with Wi-Fi HaLow for extended-range connectivity and low power consumption.
- Collect real-time data such as vehicle location, temperature, cargo status, and route efficiency.
Local Server Layer:
- Acts as an intermediary for data aggregation and temporary storage.
- Ensures operational continuity in areas with limited cloud connectivity.
Cloud Integration Layer:
- Processes and analyzes data for predictive insights.
- Provides centralized management accessible to stakeholders globally.
List of Hardware
