Development and Implementation of a Hybrid Wireless Sensor Network of Low Power and Long Range for Urban Environments Bravo-Arrabal, Juan Fernández-Lozano, Juan Jesús Serón-Barba, Javier Gómez-Ruiz, José Antonio García-Cerezo, Alfonso José Urbanismo - Innovaciones tecnológicas The urban population, worldwide, is growing exponentially and with it the demand for information on pollution levels, vehicle traffic, or available parking, giving rise to citizens connected to their environment. This article presents an experimental long range (LoRa) and low power consumption network, with a combination of static and mobile wireless sensors (hybrid architecture) to tune and validate concentrator placement, to obtain a large coverage in an urban environment. A mobile node has been used, carrying a gateway and various sensors. The Activation By Personalization (ABP) mode has been used, justified for urban applications requiring multicasting. This allows to compare the coverage of each static gateway, being able to make practical decisions about its location. With this methodology, it has been possible to provide service to the city of Malaga, through a single concentrator node. The information acquired is synchronized in an external database, to monitor the data in real time, being able to geolocate the dataframes through web mapping services. This work presents the development and implementation of a hybrid wireless sensor network of long range and low power, configured and tuned to achieve efficient performance in a mid-size city, and tested in experiments in a real urban environment. 2024-01-15T09:57:58Z 2024-01-15T09:57:58Z 2021 journal article Bravo-Arrabal, J.; Fernandez-Lozano, J.J.; Serón, J.; Gómez-Ruiz, J.A.; García-Cerezo, A.
