Perancangan & Analisis Sistem Monitoring Cuaca dengan Menggunakan Teknologi Long Range

Abstract

Weather is an important factor for human activities in their daily activities, therefore observations of weather elements are needed. From observing the elements of the weather, we can get weather information that occurs in the area so that people can find out the advantages and disadvantages that occur with these weather conditions. Currently there are still limited weather monitoring tools in the community, especially in areas that are not covered by the internet. Therefore, in this study a weather monitoring system was created that measures temperature, humidity, air pressure, wind direction and rain detection using the Lora wireless protocol. Lora is a wireless protocol that has a longer range in data transmission compared to other wireless technologies, so it is suitable to be placed in areas that are not covered by the internet. In testing the performance of this weather monitoring system, Lora is able to transmit data in conditions without obstacles of 700 meters while in conditions with obstacles of 400 meters.
