Strategic White Paper: Architecting Wireless Field Area Networks

This week's FierceEnergy is brought to you by Alcatel-Lucent.   FANs Meet the Needs of Smart Grid Applications! It's time to think about FANs! Electric utilities are turning their attention to new smart grid applications, making it increasingly important to support these applications with Field Area Networks (FANs). FANs must successfully bridge the gap between existing Wide Area Networks and the Neighborhood Area Networks in the last mile. By adding FAN capabilities, utilities can build multi-purpose networks that support a full range of smart grid applications. These networks provide better control and flexibility within the network and help reduce operating costs. The result - an ideal platform for meeting the rapidly changing needs of smart grid applications.
