A Robust and Lightweight Protocol Over Long Range (LoRa) Technology for Applications in Smart Cities

The implementation of Smart Cities requires technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT). This paradigm aims to integrate and use in Internet electronic embedded devices like sensors, in order to share information and allowing interaction from anywhere. Standard communication protocols used in IoT for data transmission are based in general on FSK (Frequency Shift Keying) techniques that do not have the range and necessary performance to deal with this new scenery. With this situation in mind Semtech Technologies have developed a new modulation technique called LoRa (Long Range) based on spread spectrum that offer a new communication model for low power and long range networks, impossible to implement with other techniques. In this paper, we describe a new communication protocol implemented over the physical layer of LoRa providing effectiveness, robustness and low power consumption suitable for IoT applications in the context of smart cities. Results obtained related with the coverage analysis confirm the success of the selection of this technology and opens new horizons for developing useful applications in domains like smart cities, e-health, smart factory, remote monitoring and control, etc.Ministerio de Economía y competitividad, proyecto iPHealth (TIN-2013-47153-C3-1).0.295 SJR (2017) Q2, 114/548 Computer Science (miscellaneous); Q3, 91/173 Theoretical Computer ScienceUE

A Dictionary Based Protocol over LoRa (Long Range) Technology for Applications in Internet of Things

Internet of the things (IoT) is a new scenario that aims to integrate into the global network “things” or devices such as sensors or embedded electronics equipment, sharing information and enabling interaction with them from anywhere. A very important aspect in IoT applications is the communication protocols used by sensors for sending and exchange information. Traditional protocols used so far do not have the scope and ability to manage a growing up computational elements used in modern IoT applications. New communications schemes based on spread spectrum and Long Range (LoRa) coverage, offer new horizons for design and implement low power and long-range sensor networks. In this paper, we describe a new, robust and lightweight communication protocol implemented over the physical layer of LoRa, providing effectiveness and low power consumption suitable for IoT applications. A coverage analysis in both urban and rural environments confirms the success in the selection of this technology and opens new challenges for developing useful applications in several domains as for example smart cities, smart-health, smart factory, remote monitoring, precision agriculture, energy management and remote monitoring and control.Ministerio de Economía y competitividad, proyecto iPHealth (TIN-2013-47153-C3-1).0.295 SJR (2017) Q2, 114/548 Computer Science (miscellaneous); Q3, 91/173 Theoretical Computer ScienceUE
