Abstract The Internet of Things (IoT) is revolutionizing
modern agriculture by enabling automated monitoring and
control of crops through embedded sensor networks. However,
long-range communication between IoT devices remains a key
challenge. LoRa (Long Range) technology has emerged as a
promising solution due to its low-power, long-range (up to 10
km), and costeffective two-way communication capabilities.
While LoRa offers significant advantages, its real-world
performance is influenced by environmental conditions, device
parameters, and network configurations. This paper introduces
FieldNet, a LoRa-powered Wireless Sensor Network (WSN)
framework designed for agricultural automation. FieldNet
facilitates remote, low-cost monitoring and control of
distributed farming systems, addressing labor-intensive and
technically demanding aspects of precision agriculture. By
integrating LoRa-based WSNs, the proposed system enhances
scalability, energy efficiency, and real-time data acquisition for
optimized crop management. Experimental evaluations assess
the impact of environmental factors on communication range,
providing insights into practical deployment strategies for
smart farming applications.
Keywords IoT, LoRa, Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN), Smart Agriculture, Precision Farming, Long-Range Communication.
