Smart Home Architecture based on LoRa Wireless Connectivity and LoRaWAN® Networking Protocol

In the recent years, the smart home systems have achieved a colossal attention for making people lives easier and more comfortable. In fact, they allow them to control the whole environment of their houses in commodious and effective way. One of the technological progress fruits is the production of a huge number of highly developed and smart systems that assist the technology of smart living. In this respect, this paper aims to present a design of a new smart home architecture integrating a wireless communication module to communicate with sensors and smart devices (LoRa). A LoRaWAN gateway was built to manage and establish this communication between the LoRa server (loraserver) and house sensors which are intelligent modules combining both LoRa and Wi-Fi technologies.
