Wi-SUN HAN Features:
Wi-SUN Enhanced HAN is the latest HAN wireless
communication standard that adds 2 functions to
the Wi-SUN HAN profile. The first is support for relay
transmission using a single relay, enabling a tree-type
one-to-many-to-many (gateway/relay/end device)
configuration that allows users to construct more stable
networks, even over longer distances. The second
is a sleep function that achieves low-power two-way
communication ideal for battery-equipped devices,
providing communication over a wider range with less
power than before.
As such, Wi-SUN-compatible devices are expected to
see wide adoption in factories, commercial facilities, and
home networks mentioned above.
From 2019 ROHM began production of a wireless
communication module, BP35C0-J11, compatible with
Wi-SUN Enhanced HAN that delivers the following
features.
WI-SUN HAN AND WI-SUN
ENHANCED HAN
Wi-SUN HAN (Home Area Network), is a
standard that assumes a one-to-many
(gateway/end device) star-type connection
linking smart meters and HEMS (Home
Energy Management Systems) with
appliances.
