Radiocrafts Industrial IP Mesh (RIIM) is a long-range, low-power sub-GHz wireless mesh networking technology that makes it easy to connect sensors, devices, and industrial systems directly to the cloud through an ultra-reliable and scalable network.
By combining wireless mesh networking, IP communication, and long battery life, RIIM reduces installation complexity, lowers maintenance costs, and reliably enables large-scale IoT deployments with hundreds to thousands of devices.
Whether used in control applications, industrial monitoring, or building automation, RIIM provides a flexible and future-proof connectivity solution designed for ultra-reliable operation over many years.

How it works
The RIIM module includes all the critical components for a complete Sub-GHz wireless mesh network. As a result, RIIM is ready to go out-of-the-box when you get the module without the need to pay license or subscription fees.
As a self-forming, self-healing, and self-optimizing mesh solution, RIIM creates a network structure that connects all devices full automatically to the gateway without user interference. Once the network is established, the connectivity is constantly monitored for changes. If a device disappears or a new device appears, then the network will re-route itself to accommodate the change. This drastically reduces maintenance costs and installation complexities.
In addition, each device in a RIIM network acts as part of the network infrastructure, allowing data to travel across multiple devices until it reaches a gateway connected to a cloud platform or local control system. This mesh architecture allows networks to cover enormous areas while maintaining ultra-reliable communication, even in hard-to-reach environments with obstacles or challenging radio conditions.
Scaling with reliability is the cornerstone of RIIM. RIIM uses mechanisms called Time-Synchronized Channel Hopping (TSCH) and Adaptive Frequency Agility (AFA) to achieve a data transmission success rate of 99.99%+ including in networks with thousands of devices. TSCH and AFA work in tandem by sending data transmissions at several frequencies and different timeslots in a synchronized schedule. All radio channels are constantly being scanned where the noisiest ones with most interference are marked and removed from the frequency hopping list. This means that RIIM only sends data on the radio channels with the least amount of noise, drastically reducing interference and ensuring stable and predictable data transmissions.
RIIM is also optimized for applications which have high data capacity requirements. RIIM supports high data throughput networking to handle more data, more devices, and more frequent communication without compromising reliability or battery life. This enables real-time control of advanced IoT applications such as sub-metering and solar tracking while still maintaining the long range and low power consumption required for large-scale deployments. For your network, this means more flexibility in what devices can do and the ability to support more advanced features over time.
RIIM’s low power consumption allows battery-powered sensors and devices to operate for many years while still maintaining reliable wireless communication. For example, a battery-operated RIIM device can have a battery life of up to 15 years on just 2 AA batteries. This reduces maintenance requirements, lowers operating costs, and enables devices to be installed in remote or hard-to-reach locations where replacing batteries frequently would be impractical.
For companies deploying IoT and monitoring solutions, RIIM simplifies the process of building large wireless networks by reducing the need for cabling, minimizing infrastructure requirements, and lowering installation and maintenance costs. The low power consumption enables long battery life for wireless devices, while the scalable network architecture allows systems to expand over time without major redesign. This makes RIIM a flexible and future-proof connectivity solution for a wide range of applications where reliable, long-range wireless communication is essential.

Radiocrafts supports Time Synchronization in our Industrial IP Mesh solution, RIIM!
This video snippet is a demo we have run to show the Time Synchronization feature! We first power up the mesh routers and border router. As the mesh routers try to connect to the border router, we see them start to synchronize the timing of their transmissions! Time Synchronization is an essential feature for many applications such as street lighting, where you need to turn off/on a group of street lights at the exact same time with no delays. |
|
|
We are introducing a new game-changing feature to RIIM. The feature is called Adaptive Frequency Agility (AFA)!
Adaptive Frequency Agility allows for high data throughput networking by taking the allowed duty cycle in Europe from 1% to around 37%. To use RIIM as an example, you can now go from 1 packet reaching the Border Router every 4 seconds to 37 packets every 4 seconds! This is a game-changer for applications that require higher throughput such as street lighting or smart irrigation! |

Part 1: How To Setup A RIIM Development Kit In Part 2 we teach you how to configure a RIIM network node using three ICI applications that are provided by Radiocrafts in the RIIM SDK. We start off by describing the various contents of the SDK and how to download the tools required to use the SDK. We then proceed to compile and upload one of the ICI example applications provided in the SDK to the RIIM module on the boards. |
