How RPMA Works

Device

Flood sensors placed near river beds, in canyons, and on bridges detect water levels before they become a problem, not after. When triggered alerts are sent, the back-office software platform automatically alerts emergency personnel who close impacted roads and use reverse 911 notifications to evacuate residents in danger.

Data & Connection

An alert-based system, flood sensors are triggered and alerts are sent as needed over the RPMA® (Random Phase Multiple Access) wireless data pipe. Because these kinds of alerts happen very infrequently, the sensors can be placed and last for 20+ years, allowing for protection over the long run. Because of RPMA’s cost-effective and long-lasting solution, municipalities of all types can afford to protect their citizens.

AP

Because RPMA access points (AP) receive and understand over a thousand messages simultaneously, handling the potentially large number of incoming alerts during literal flood events is no problem. Mesh, cellular and cellular LPWA, as well as other existing LPWA solutions, get bogged down under high-capacity events, like simultaneous flood alerts. Ingenu’s APs handle the alert traffic easily, ensuring the life-saving alerts get through.

Cloud

Our restful API means that RPMA enabled devices like life-saving flood sensors work with whatever interface you need, all in the cloud. Using the industry standard RESTful interface, we play nice with your favorite data tools, no matter where they reside.

Application Interface

The flood sensor back-office software includes an intelligent platform to help communities monitor their waterways with ease. Alert generation and forwarding, as well as notifications and warnings, allow the alerts to get to emergency personnel as soon as they show up. The streamlined platform brings flood warning and resident evacuation systems right to our community leaders’ and emergency personnel’s fingertips.

Device

Our partners’ smart parking applications have anywhere from single to multiple embedded sensors for improving accurate readings. From automated parking payments from inside your car to notifications and remotely refilling your meter. RPMA® (Random Phase Multiple Access) helps our partners take parking to the 21st century.

Data & Connection

The smartest parking allows for remote payment to refill the parking meter. Only RPMA has the ability to securely support point-of-sale transactions of all the existing LPWA connectivity options. Only RPMA has enough capacity to have completely acknowledged two-way communications allowing end users to refill their parking meter while at their concert downtown. No other existing or developing LPWA technology can claim the same.

AP

Because RPMA access points (AP) receive and understand over a thousand messages simultaneously, handling the large number of parking transactions at huge events like concerts and sports games is built right in. Mesh, cellular and cellular LPWA, as well as other existing LPWA solutions get bogged down under high capacity events, like thousands and thousands of incoming and outgoing parking updates.

Cloud

Our restful API means that RPMA-enabled devices like life-saving flood sensors work with whatever interface you need, all in the cloud. Using the industry standard RESTful interface, we play nice with your favorite data tools, no matter where they reside.

Application Interface

With RPMA’s ecosystem of smart parking apps, our partners take smart parking straight to the smartphone. From notifications right to your phone, to payments while sitting in your car or at the show, parking has gone from a hassle to a seamless part of your night out.

Device

KONČAR’s RPMA-enabled Remote Terminal Units and wireless pressure and temperature transmitters were installed in flow stations, manifolds, and wellheads for Shell Nigeria in consultation with Upland Consulting Nigeria. This RPMA-connected system saved Shell over $1M with an overall 92% savings over the next-best connectivity solutions.

Data & Connection

KONČAR’s RPMA-enabled digital oilfield devices use the RPMA connection from the field to the back office, ensuring reliable information transmission. Whether monitoring, controlling, or automating oilfield operations, RPMA’s full-featured connectivity has you covered.

AP

Because RPMA access points (AP) receive and understand over a thousand messages simultaneously, oil companies like Shell can easily monitor, control, and automate all of their digital oilfield assets.

Cloud

RPMA’s restful API means that RPMA-enabled devices like KONČAR’s Remote Terminal Units and wireless pressure and temperature transmitters can be integrated into any digital oilfield management software interface.

Application Interface

The digital oilfield solution combines IT automation and instrumentation technologies to provide a support platform to utilize remote field data while optimizing operational efficiencies. This integrated technology platform offers faster analysis and more efficient data management to provide insight into field processes, resulting in safe and efficient oilfield operation.

Device

Over one million artisanal fishermen subsist off of their daily catch. They can’t afford the satellite solutions large commercial fishing vessels can. The McMurdo Group® offers the Omnicom Solar vessel tracker, a unique RPMA-enabled boat tracking and two-way communication device that gives these fishermen a life-line in troubled waters and enables nations to monitor fishing in their waters.

Data & Connection

Fatalities from capsized vessels can be prevented with RPMA® (Random Phase Multiple Access) connectivity. Because RPMA can reach 40 miles over open water, these fishermen now have access to continuous tracking and a panic button that allows fisherman to signal a distress situation, notifying other vessels in the area that a rescue is required.

AP

Because RPMA access points (AP) receive and understand over a thousand messages simultaneously, broadcast updates to all vessels in a particular fleet allow authorities to warn of impending inclement weather and provide other fleet-wide updates.

Cloud

Our restful API means that RPMA-enabled devices like McMurdo Group’s vessel tracker can provide the safety and emergency alerts for fishermen in trouble. It also allows for governments to track and monitor fishing activities in their waters.

Application Interface

When a stranded vessel hits the panic button, communities and authorities are notified of an emergency. Millions who had no safety options available while out at sea, for the first time, can get help when they need it most.

Device

The Random Phase Multiple Access, or RPMA®-enabled Energate LC2100 load control switch allows for remote management of major residential or commercial electrical loads. When power draw reaches its peak, air conditioning, pool pumps, and electrical water heaters can be controlled directly with energy efficiency (EE) and demand response (DR) programs.

Data & Connection

Energate’s load control switches take advantage of RPMA’s secure, two-way connectivity for its electrical load management capabilities. Beause it is a two-way data pipe, each management program commands are performed and then confirmed so that you know the true state of each controlled asset.

AP

Because RPMA access points (AP) receive and understand over a thousand messages simultaneously, utilities and others can easily broadcast commands to all the needed assets simultaneously making DR programs efficient and effective.

Cloud

RPMA’s restful API means that RPMA-enabled devices like Energate’s LC2100 Load Control Switch can interact with whatever DR interface is necessary. Flexible and powerful, we make asset load control easy.

Application Interface

Energate has many interfaces from smart thermostats to MyEnergate’s web portal and Mobile Apps. Wherever you are, Energate can help you tap into your RPMA-enabled load control switches.
