Wytec integrates AI, blockchain in support of smart city 5G initiatives
10 May 2023 – Wytec, a developer and integrator of 5G technologies, is to advance its patented LPN-16 small cell technology by incorporating artificial intelligence and blockchain technologies into its patented LPN-16 Small Cell. Wytec aims to create a smarter, safer, and more efficient future for cities across the country. “Small Cells play a substantial role in supporting massive growth for the Internet of Things (IoT) applications,” confirms William Gray, president/CEO of Wytec.
Wytec International, Inc. entered into a multi-phased service agreement with Trabus Technologies to upgrade Wytec’s patented LPN-16 small cell to include artificial intelligence (AI) and blockchain technology, creating a platform capable of connecting multiple wireless devices through an “Application Programming Interface” (API). The integrated platform will support deployment of multiple IoT applications such as improved in-building cellular services, active shooter sensing technology, remote learning and more. The bundled solution will dramatically reduce costs while enabling an IoT infrastructure.
Wytec’s deployment will focus on utilising AI with the new FCC’s Citizens Broadband Radio Service (CBRS) for improving in-building cellular performance in schools, commercial and municipal buildings while aiding in the neutralisation of potential and harmful threats in real-time. Subsequent phases will focus on remote education and power grid management, cementing Wytec’s objective of becoming a key player in the future of smart cities.
Blockchain technology will additionally support Wytec’s “revenue share” component in support of its Public-Private Partnership (PPP) programme, to assist municipalities in both funding and future-proofing their 5G Smart City initiatives.
Wytec is actively seeking cities and school districts to participate in its Pilot Project Partnership, which will demonstrate the effectiveness of AI and Blockchain technology in a more secure and connected community.
