RFLoRaWAN Temperature Humidity Sensor: Design and Manufacturers
Advertisement
This page discusses the design and development of LoRaWAN Temperature Humidity Sensors, including the hardware components used. It also provides a list of certified LoRaWAN Temperature Humidity Sensor manufacturers or vendors.
Introduction
This article explores Temperature/Humidity sensors based on LoRaWAN. LoRaWAN is a low-power, long-range wireless system that operates in various frequency bands worldwide.
These temperature/humidity sensing devices find applications in:
- Food/vegetable storage and transportation
- Manufacturing labs
- Server rooms or data centers
- Climate monitoring
- Smart factories and buildings
- And more
LoRaWAN Temperature Humidity Sensor Design
The figure below shows a block diagram of a LoRaWAN Temperature Humidity Sensor. It consists of a sensor, a microcontroller unit (MCU), and a LoRaWAN transceiver. The device connects wirelessly to the LoRaWAN network via a gateway.
As shown, the temperature and humidity data are sensed and uploaded to a third-party cloud server. This uploaded data can then be accessed through a web or mobile app specifically developed for this purpose.
