A Study of Air Pollution Smart Sensors LPWAN via NB-IoT for Thailand Smart Cities 4.0

The problem of air pollutant has to improve urgently, in particular, approach to smart city in 2024 of Thailand 4.0. This paper presents a development of smart sensors of air pollution to monitor the air quality in smart city. We propose the smart sensors that consist of the particulate matter (PM
₁₀
) or dust sensor, carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide (CO
₂
), noise level (dB), and ozone (O
₃
) respectively. These sensors are solution of a low power wide area network (LPWAN). In the experiment, the measurement has been investigated in Bangkok metropolitan, and the results show air quality index (AQI) via Norrowband Internet of Things (NB-IoT). The proposed of this paper can help the people know the real-time air quality via IoT as a service.
