DEVELOPMENT OF LORAWAN FOR INDUSTRIAL AUTOMATION

The objective of this project is to develop a low-power automation system capable of reliable long-range communication and centralized monitoring. The growing use of automation in industrial, agricultural, and smart city applications demands wireless technologies that overcome the limitations
of conventional wired and short-range systems in terms of coverage, scalability, and power consumption. To address this, a LoRaWAN-based automation framework using the Core1262-868M LoRa module operating in the 868 MHz ISM band is proposed, enabling secure, long-distance, and
energy-efficient remote monitoring and control.
This work demonstrates a simple and practical automation system using three connected boards. The board is used to send signals through a switch, allowing the user to turn the system ON or OFF. The second board acts as an intermediate unit that passes the message forward. The third board receives the signal and controls an LED accordingly. When the switch is operated, the LED responds instantly, showing successful communication between the boards. This communication process can be done by connecting multiple intermediate nodes to achieve the expected outcome. This setup
highlights an easy and reliable way to achieve remote control using a step-by-step signal transfer method.
