Abstract

The Internet of things (IoT) is the extension of Internet connectivity into physical devices and everyday objects. LoRa (short for long range) is a spread spectrum modulation technique derived from Chirp Spread Spectrum (CSS) technology. This paper presents the benefits of using LoRa technology in Educational Institutes. The aim of this paper is to answer the following question: “How has the emergence of LoRa technology affected the education process and an Educational Institute operation?”. Initially the paper presents a short introduction of IoT networks and LoRa technology and after that the possible benefits of LoRa technology in Educational Institutes are presented and analyzed. In addition, we analyses the potential impacts of LoRa technology in the education process and an Educational Institute operation.
