Private LoRaWAN Network Gateways: Assessment and Monitoring in the Context of IIoT-Based Management

Blog Article

In the ever-evolving construction industry, the incorporation of the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) through Low-power Wireless Area Networks (LPWAN), such as LoRaWAN, has emerged as a practical solution for addressing the challenges posed by the limited 5G cellular coverage found in solutions like NB-IoT and LTE-M, especially when deployed in remote locations.Open-source LPWAN platforms like The Things Network (TTN) and ChirpStack Vibrators have played a pivotal role in fostering the adoption of LoRa technology by providing a mature and cost-effective ecosystem that facilitates efficient device resource management.Within this context, maintaining continuous surveillance of LPWAN network gateways becomes critically important, requiring a meticulous examination of status indicators and an evaluation of the communication quality.This paper introduces a structured approach for extracting data from TTN to create a comprehensive gateway monitoring system.The methodology encompasses various aspects, including ensuring seamless 10" Square (Layer Cake) Patterns server connectivity, specifically focusing on efficient information management and integration of real-world construction data.

This foundational work sets the stage for a more in-depth exploration of the diverse management components within the network ecosystem.
