Wireless Communication Technologies with IoT-Based Cloud-Enabled Service for Smart Agriculture Monitoring System

Wireless communication technologies are now being applied in new sectors because of technological advancements in the Internet of Things (IoT). Agricultural monitoring is an example of how the Internet of Things helps in improving productivity, efficiency, and yield. However, because all these devices are frequently used in locations where energy is not easily available, the powering device is a problem. For agricultural monitoring, this study examines IoT devices with energy harvesting capabilities employing three wireless technologies like Wi-Fi, HC-12, and the Long-Range Wireless Communication Network (LoRa). The objective of this investigation was to see how each technology performed in different types of environments. According to the observations, LoRa is the best wireless communication technology the use of an agricultural monitoring system where network lifetime and power consumption are essential.
