The Application Prospect of Lora Module in the Field of Intelligent Meter Reading and Agricultural Informatization

LoRa technology occupies an important position in the development of the Internet of Things. Because of its ease of construction and deployment, it has become a commonly used Internet of Things dedicated network communication technology. In recent years, due to the maturity of LoRa technology in the leading position, as well as the characteristics of long transmission distance, low power consumption and strong anti-interference, LoRa modules are widely used.


The communication distance of LoRa wireless modules is affected by factors such as the use environment, transmit power, sensitivity, interference, etc. Therefore, modules with different powers use different communication distances in different environments. The communication distance of the LoRa module can reach more than 8 kilometers, which can solve the problem of complex ultra-long-distance communication.


1. Smart wireless meter reading


The LoRa communication module is widely used in intelligent wireless meter reading. The data acquisition equipment of the distribution box transmits the electricity consumption information of each household to the LoRa module, and the LoRa module transmits the data to the remote control center through the gateway. The low-power, long-distance, and low-cost advantages of LoRa modules are more conducive to large-scale promotion and the development and construction of smart cities.


2. Agricultural informatization:


Comprehensively develop and apply modern network technology in the agricultural field, making agricultural production particularly convenient, effectively reducing costs and increasing yields.


LoRa realizes the interconnection of agricultural nodes, low power consumption, long transmission distance, and no communication costs, making it a reality for large-scale applications in agricultural production. For example, in the detection of water quality, temperature, humidity, carbon dioxide concentration, and pests and diseases, the information of the collected equipment can be transmitted to the control and dispatch center through the LoRa module, and according to real-time data analysis, automatic irrigation, automatic spraying and other measures can be carried out.


All in all, the LoRa communication module has the advantages of low power consumption, long distance, high sensitivity and strong anti-interference, which makes it widely used in the fields of IoT agriculture, intelligent wireless meter reading, robot control, security system, vehicle tracking, and smart city. The development of LoRa technology is particularly broad in the future.

The application demand of long-distance wireless transmission is increasing year by year, such as the use of small amounts of data and long-distance transmission between water meters, smoke detectors and other devices. More and more enterprises are investing heavily in the construction of low-power wide-area networks. Long-distance and low-power wireless network technologies such as lora have become an important technological progress in the Internet of Things. The applications of the Internet of Things include remote meter reading, security systems, home automation telemetry, wireless data communication, access control systems, robot control, etc. LoRa wireless modules are the first choice for these applications. It can be seen that the development prospects of lora modules are very good.
