Hybrid Infrastructure Governance for Next-Generation Airport Operations
At
Stockholm Arlanda Airport, Wittra has deployed a hybrid connectivity
infrastructure supporting services such as wheelchair tracking for PRM
passengers and energy monitoring across building systems. The deployment
reflects a broader shift in airport digitalization — from fragmented IoT
deployments to governed infrastructure platforms capable of supporting
multiple operational services.
Wittra
introduces a hybrid infrastructure governance layer that consolidates
connectivity, positioning, and sensor telemetry into a unified operational
platform.
Instead of
deploying separate networks for positioning systems and sensor connectivity,
the platform provides a unified infrastructure control plane capable of
orchestrating multiple radio technologies within the same architecture.
The
infrastructure integrates Ultra-Wideband (UWB), Wi-SUN mesh, LoRa, and Mioty,
while connecting seamlessly to private or public 5G networks used as
high-capacity backhaul.
At the
center of the architecture is the Wittra Hybrid Gateway, a multi-radio
infrastructure node that consolidates these technologies into a single device.
By
combining hybrid connectivity with a unified governance layer, airports can
establish a scalable infrastructure foundation where positioning, sensors, and
operational telemetry operate within the same system.
This
approach creates the operational data layer required for Physical AI and
intelligent airport operations.
