LoRa-Driven Smart Greenhouse: Remote Management for Isolated Areas

Abstract

This project aims to develop an intelligent system based on Long Range (LoRa) technology to provide long-range wireless communication without the need for internet access or complex communication infrastructure. The system enables the collection of data from various sensors, such as temperature, humidity, and water level, and securely transmits it to a control unit. Additionally, a remote user in isolated areas, such as farms, can communicate with the control room, enabling bidirectional message exchange to enhance real-time communication and control. The system incorporates an integrated user interface powered by Node-RED, allowing for the visualization of data and remote management of devices such as pumps and fans. It is designed to operate effectively in diverse environments, including open fields and areas with obstacles, making it ideal for applications in smart agriculture and smart homes, with an emphasis on reducing reliance on traditional infrastructure.
