Network authentication is an essential procedure for addressing protocol issues that may arise between terminals and networks before IoT solutions that link with a mobile carrier's network are commercialized.

Until now, it took IoT terminal manufacturers a long time to prepare a test environment, identify the cause of a problem when it occurred, and resolve it, so it took an average of 1 to 2 months for each telecommunications company to obtain IoT network certification.

When utilizing the DX platform, the network certification period is shortened to less than one week, and the progress and results of the certification process can be checked on the website.

LG U+ provides an emulator program and its source code, which replicates the functionality of the terminals, communication modules, oneM2M platform, and service servers that comprise IoT services and allows for testing in a realistic environment. The emulator program consists of three components: terminals, service servers, and end-to-end (E2E) components.

Network consistency testing also becomes easier. LG U+ plans to install PCT (Protocol Conformance Test) equipment exclusively for manufacturers by October, which can automatically check whether base stations and network equipment are properly connected and the level of impact.

It also reduces development costs for the Firmware Over the Air (FOTA) feature, which allows for remote wireless upgrades of embedded firmware in IoT devices. LG U+ is providing a free firmware remote upgrade platform to reduce the development costs and server deployment burden required to implement FOTA.

Meanwhile, oneM2M is an international standard that provides requirements, architecture, API specifications, security solutions, and interoperability for IoT technology. LG U+ is currently offering a commercial IoT platform based on oneM2M, certified by the Telecommunications Technology Association (TTA) of Korea.
