Introduction:
During monitoring, when signal parameters are difficult to collect over wires, it is advisable to use wireless solutions. The LoRA based technology is quite reliable with a good range at an economic cost.
Requirement:
Almost every industry has a Data Collection system from different devices/equipment to monitor the functioning. These data collection systems are mainly wired which increases the installation and maintenance cost. Here comes the need for a wireless system to collect data more robustly and cost-efficiently. Some of the issues while having wired connections are:
1.Physically wiring of each and every device
2.The complexity of wiring makes it difficult to maintain
3.Occupancy of physical space in the industry
