An Evaluation of LoRaWAN and WLAN for IoT-based Photovoltaic Microgrid Monitoring
Objective
The main objective of this project is to assess LoRaWAN and WLAN technologies for monitoring IoT-based solar microgrids, focusing on their reliability, coverage, and energy efficiency.
Abstract
Abstract:
This study evaluates the performance and suitability of LoRaWAN and WLAN for monitoring IoT-based photovoltaic microgrid systems. The system comprises an Arduino-based LoRa transmitter (LoRa TX) interfacing with a solar panel, battery voltage sensor, and DHT11 temperature sensor. The solar panel generates energy, which is stored in the battery. The battery voltage sensor monitors the voltage level of the battery, while the DHT11 sensor measures the ambient temperature. The collected data is transmitted wirelessly from the LoRa TX module to a LoRa receiver (LoRa RX) unit, which is connected to a NodeMCU. The NodeMCU then forwards the data to an IoT platform, such as ThingSpeak, for remote monitoring and analysis. The evaluation focuses on comparing the efficiency, reliability, and data transmission performance of LoRaWAN and WLAN technologies in the context of photovoltaic microgrid monitoring. The findings provide insights into the optimal communication technology for energy-efficient and effective remote monitoring in solar energy applications.
