Implementation of Lora for Controlling and Monitoring Broiler Cage Temperature

Abstract

A system for controlling the temperature of broilers cages has been made with LoRa data communication. The purpose of this research is to make a prototype of a control system for monitoring and controlling the temperature of broiler controlled by a microcontroller with LoRa communication. The results of measuring system performance are indicated by the DHT11 sensor reading error occurs when the temperature is 36,37 °C and 38 °C by 1.03%. The device that can connect to LoRa is 320 m in Line of Sight (LOS) conditions and 52 m in Non Line of Sight (NLOS) conditions. Overall the tool can function well. Suggestions for further research, an Internet of Things (IoT) based monitoring system can be added using a mobile application.
