Multi-Protocol Sensor Node for Internet of Things (IoT) Applications

Abstract

This paper will describe the implementation of an end-to-end IoT solution, focusing specifically in the multi-protocol sensor node using Pycom's FiPy board. A performance assessment will be presented, addressing a comparison between the different protocols (LoRa vs. Wi-Fi) in terms radio coverage, timing issues, power consumption/battery usage, among others. Further, it will be investigated the integration onto the sensor node different sensor/actuator circuit blocks for energy metering on industrial machinery as a way to optimize energy efficiency metrics. This will provide a practical use case in the field of Industry 4.0, leading to insights for power quality monitoring
