Abstract
LoRa technology is extensively utilized in the Internet of Things world. It allows a transmission of a low volume of data through small wireless devices. The principle of LoRa networks is to transmit data over the air from sensors with low transmission range, for about tens of kilometers. Those sensors are not expected to be powered by electricity, and they are powered by batteries. We understand that visits to hospitals cannot be eliminated and that visits for full examinations were necessary, but technological progress nowadays could reduce the burden on hospitals thanks to remote controls and treatments in homes using those wireless sensors. So, the use of LoRaWAN protocol could greatly make diagnostic of patients more easily by transmitting data between doctors and patients in a real time manner. The aim of this work is to evaluate the performance of a network that contains numerous mobile sensors. Those sensors connect the doctors, nurse, and patient through a reliable and secure wireless network. Here, we want to evaluate various factors of LoRaWAN protocol that have a big effect on power consumption and data transmission delay.. Moreover, our LoRa-based networking implementation, based on software simulations, appears to be an option that allows for a robust, reliable, and lower overall cost IoT deployment and low bandwidth requirements. With LoRa, we can achieve similar or better link quality to IEEE 802.15.4, with higher data rate and lower costs.
