| Summary: | In recent decades, technology has undergone significant transformations, aimed at optimizing and enhancing the quality of human life. A prime example of this progress is the Internet of Things (IoT) technology. Today, the IoT is widely applied across diverse sectors, including logistics, communications, agriculture, education, and infrastructure, demonstrating its versatility and profound relevance in various domains. Agriculture has historically been a fundamental sector for meeting humanity’s basic needs, and it is indispensable for survival and development. A critical factor in this regard is climatic and meteorological conditions directly influencing agricultural productivity. Therefore, real-time monitoring and analysis of these variables becomes imperative for optimizing production and reducing vulnerability to climate change. This paper presents the development and implementation of a low-power wide-area network (LPWAN) solution using LoRaWAN (long-range wide-area network) technology, designed for real-time environmental monitoring in agricultural applications. The system consists of energy-efficient end nodes and a custom-configured gateway, designed to optimize data transmission and power consumption. The end nodes integrate advanced sensors for temperature, humidity, and pressure, ensuring accurate data collection. |
