Implementation LoRaWAN End Node Tracking

Abstract

This study is a trial of the LoRaWAN LGT92 End Node connected to the LoRa RAK7243 Gateway. These end nodes and gateways were registered on The Things Network (TTN) server. Therefore, several scenarios were made to test the performance of communication. Firstly, the signal strength received by the gateway was measured, followed by mobile node tracking using one or two gateways. During the test processes, the position of the LGT92 node was successfully sent in real-time to the TTN server and its coordinates were also displayed on the dashboard using Cayenne. The range achieved for RAK7243 is 900 m in NLoS. Furthermore, the position of both nodes was displayed on the map using the Cayenne application. The future work is to build the proposed design in real system scenarios.
