What is Wirepas?

Wirepas is an international company with headquarters in Tampere, Finland. Wirepas is specialized in IoT opics and offers the Wirepas Mesh stack (firmware only) and support to high volume customers. Würth Elektronik is in cooperation with Wirepas to integrate the Wirepas mesh stack into radio chips as well as offering service to our customers to develop Wirepas mesh radio modules based on the existing Nordic Semiconductor nRF platform. Würth Elektronik is licensed to develop, support and sell standard and custom Wirepas mesh radio modules.

What is Wirepas Mesh?

Wirepas Mesh is a connectivity protocol for radio modules, optimized for large scale and energy efficient wireless mesh networks in the frequency 2.4 GHz. This innovative technology can be used to create large IoT networks, for example using battery-powered sensors, in which each node also functions as a router. On a single MCU solution, the application runs on the device itself. On a dual MCU solution, the application runs on a host microcontroller.

What are the strengths of Wirepas Mesh protocol?

Traditional mesh networks suffer in large scale from complex networking tables, congestion and bandwidth issues. Wirepas overcomes these issues by removing network‘s infrastructures and decentralizing network‘s intelligence on the nodes. All networking decisions are done locally by the nodes. Every node:

  • scans automatically the neighborhood and choose the best path to the sink
  • adapts transmit power to neighbor proximity
  • can act as sink, routing or non-routing node
  • can work in low power or low latency mode
  • chooses the best frequency to use locally
  • has a high configurability, interference-tolerance, ultra-low energy consumption: Wirepas mesh software is ideal for large scale and battery-operated networks.

    Hi!

    Check out Rigado products, they have a gateway that offers Wirepas. It means other manufacturers can work with them to implement Wirepas devices, without needing to build a gateway since they can just use the Rigado one (perhaps even resell it - not sure), and have the benefits of Wirepas. There are sensor manufacturers with Wirepas (some may not mention it in their product specs, others do), with large deployments, and the (fairly large) deployment that I know of was successful with its Wirepas deployment.

    Can you explain more, if it how it's doing now?

    More success to you.

    I've used a system with Wirepas. It seemed reliable to me : ) And was certainly low-power.

    Only downside is it's proprietary, but that's not an insurmountable issue usually.
