Avaliação de Dispositivos de Rastreamento em uma Rede LoRaWAN no Contexto de Cidades Inteligentes
Abstract
Fleet vehicle tracking is among the main applications for smart cities. This work evaluates four tracking devices - two commercial and two programmed - that make use of a LoRaWAN network to send their geolocations collected through GPS sensors. The evaluation of the devices is part of the development of a truck tracking solution for selective garbage collection in partnership with the University and the Municipality. The behavior of each device is analyzed when moving through 3 representative urban regions. The results include a quantitative and qualitative analysis to present the efficiency of the devices, as well as data on network signal strength and signal-to-noise ratio.
