AIKOnet is a communication platform for industrial IoT equipment designed to operate in areas without traditional coverage.
Its architecture combines intelligent radios, base stations, and connectivity infrastructure to deliver long-range communication, reliable data transmission, and remote equipment control in demanding industrial environments.
IoT enables real-time data collection, but connectivity remains one of the main challenges in remote operations.
Traditional networks can face coverage limitations in complex geographies, while satellite solutions can generate extra costs for low-data-rate telemetry applications.
On the other hand, technologies like LoRaWAN can face network saturation, collisions, and limitations for applications that require bidirectional communication and remote control.
The result is lost data, operational blind spots, and delayed critical decisions.
A solution designed to connect sensors, assets, and industrial equipment in places where traditional infrastructure is not enough.
AIKOnet is built on a three-pillar architecture that enables capturing, managing, and transmitting information from the field to the cloud.
Client radios connect directly with sensors and industrial equipment through standard protocols:
— 4-20 mA · RS-232 · RS-485 · CAN · I/O
The devices can automatically adapt to connect to the best available base station and establish node-to-node (P2P) communication, optimizing bandwidth usage.
The established communication is full duplex, allowing the equipment to be configured remotely when necessary.
Las estaciones base gestionan la comunicación con las radios cliente y ajustan el ancho de banda en tiempo real, según lo que cada radio necesita.
El resultado: un flujo de datos siempre optimizado.
AIKOnet can connect to the Internet using different infrastructure options:
— 4G/5G · Satellite · Internet · Fiber
Information is centralized to facilitate analytics, monitoring, and operational visibility.
All data traffic is encrypted and compressed: maximum efficiency, maximum privacy.
AIKOnet incorporates active dynamic roaming specifically designed for mobile assets.
Client radios constantly scan the radio spectrum in real time, even while the asset is in motion.
When a base station with a more suitable signal is detected, the system automatically switches to it.
The switch between base stations occurs seamlessly, maintaining data flow and equipment control without operational outages.
AIKOnet uses Synchronized Network Communication (SYNC), a TDMA-based protocol that organizes device transmissions to prevent collisions and interference.
Unlike systems based on random transmission, SYNC enables controlled and deterministic communication.
Simultaneous transmission and reception for applications requiring telemetry, remote control, and OTA updates.
Devices can log data during a communication outage and store it for extended periods.
Once connection is restored, data is transmitted following a secure confirmation handshake, preventing information loss.
Upon restoring communication, AIKOnet prioritizes the most recent data to quickly update SCADA/HMI systems and regain current operational visibility.
AIKOnet uses a combination of GFSK, FLRC, and LoRa, dynamically selecting the most suitable transmission technology according to link conditions.
High speed, with up to 300 Kbps, for networks with high data density.
A balance between speed and coverage for regional-range applications.
Greater penetration and reach for operations with complex topographies.
Designed for remote infrastructure and applications requiring ultra-long range.
The system performs dynamic auto-tuning, alternating between GFSK, FLRC, and different LoRa levels (SF7–SF12) to find the optimal link based on distance and communication conditions.
*Reported distances correspond to 30 dB power conditions and line of sight.
AIKOnet incorporates proprietary custom-designed electronics, developed for industrial applications where communication stability and availability are critical.
Compatibility with industrial protocols and signals:
4-20 mA · RS-232 · RS-485 · CAN · I/O
Enables a plug-and-play connection with field sensors and devices.
La Bidirectional communication allows remote activation of physical actuators, including:
Valves · Motors · Relays
Hardware developed under industrial standards, with high immunity alongside thermal and electrical stability, as well as native encryption.
AIKOnet is designed to support high-density networks through dynamic management of communication channels.
This allows building scalable industrial IoT networks capable of connecting large amounts of sensors and assets within the same operation.
AIKOnet is designed for applications where traditional coverage does not reach and data continuity is critical.
Remote valve control and sensor monitoring in large areas without cellular coverage.
Fluid telemetry in leach pads and monitoring of mobile machinery, including underground mining applications.
Pipeline supervision and remote valve control in geographically isolated environments.
Connectivity for power generation plants, high-transmission power lines, and remote substations.
AIKOnet allows you to extend connectivity to the most remote areas of your operation, delivering an IoT infrastructure ready for telemetry, supervision, and remote control.
