Long Range Wide Area Network (LoRaWAN)

The Long Range Wide Area Network (LoRaWAN) enables data to be sent over long distances - even from remote or hard-to-reach locations. The special feature of LoRaWAN lies in the energy-efficient, secure and cost-effective transmission of information and data. Here, the use of narrowband technology together with battery-powered and wireless sensors is sufficient.  The transfer of data is carried out by 3 essential components of the LoRaWAN. These include the sensor, which is responsible for detecting and encoding data. Then, the sensor sends this data to all gateways in its vicinity.  The second component are the Gateways, which receive the data. After receiving the Gateways are responsible for the transfer to the server. In the LoRa server, the last component, the incoming data is processed, visualised and stored if necessary.
