Why is it important?
The idea of building a “smart city” Arkadag belongs to the Leader of the Nation Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov, it provides for the use of information and communication automated control systems: water supply and energy supply; waste – smart waste; ensuring the mobility of citizens within the city - increasing the efficiency of road use by both personal and public transport, introducing smart transport and smart parking; digitalization and ensuring reliable communications – creating an environment for easy interconnection and exchange of information between citizens; citizen participation in city management – e-government; safe city – ensuring the safety of citizens; accessible e-education and healthcare – smart healthcare, telemedicine, distance learning; environmental protection – control of pollution and noise levels, creation and use of “green” technologies
Perspectives
The first “smart” city of Turkmenistan will be equipped with a scaled LoRaWAN (Long Range Wide Area Network), which is an energy-efficient long-distance data transmitter and is characterized by high operating autonomy in a large network area. Electricity, drinking water, and natural gas sensors are installed in the overall LoRaWAN system, which will facilitate the reception of signal data at a distance of 10-15 km via the Ethernet network (a family of technologies for packet data transfer between devices). The basic LoRaWAN system will be able to listen to the air in a given frequency range, send a request from any of the devices, and respond to it at the same frequency. At the same time, the channel width is 125 kHz with a maximum speed of more than 5 kilobits/s. Thus, the device can turn on motion sensors, open and close doors, control the temperature and humidity conditions of the building, monitor water leakage, turn on and off electrical appliances, and remotely control home systems using digital information technologies
