The continuous emergence of new technologies based on the IoT paradigm has resulted in a heterogeneous ecosystem. The proposed INTER-HARE platform will create synergies between LPLANs and LPWANs, by building and testing an IoT platform easily scalable (both in coverage range and devices) and flexible (both in the considered use cases and the frequency bands from employed devices).

Interoperability is provided by a hierarchical two-tier network, where dual-band devices simultaneously interact with end devices and the INTER-IoT gateway. INTER-HARE platform will allow in the mid-long term the deployment of advanced services based on sensor networks, from a wide range of everyday life applications, at reasonable costs, and low time-to-market.
