dc.description.abstractThis research evaluates the performance of UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle)-based and Non-UAV-based LoRa wireless communication under various scenario. LoRa is a long-range, low-power wireless communication technology that has become increasingly popular for IOT (Internet of Things) and other applications, due to its long-range capabilities, low power consumption, and low cost. In this study, the LoRa technology is used to establish wireless communication between a ground-based gateway (Receiver) and a moving UAV-based or Non-UAV-based end-node (Transmitter) that tested within 1 kilometer scope, for the purpose of evaluating the functionality and the signal disturbance of LoRa for both indoor and outdoor. The performance of the communication is evaluated under different scenarios, including varying distances between the gateway and the end-node, different environments (indoor and outdoor), different antenna types and battery power consumption upon data transmission. The main performance metrics that used in the evaluation are the RSSI (Received Signal Strength Indicator) and PRR (Packet Reception Rate). The results of the evaluation show that the UAV-based and Non-UAV-based LoRa technology can provide reliable and efficient wireless communication and optimum battery power consumption of the data transmission setting, with good performance tested within 1 kilometer distance and in various environments. The findings of this study can provide useful insights and guidance for the design and implementation of LoRa-based wireless communication systems for UAV applications.
