Wireless and LoRaWAN field telemetry
What is a wireless and lorawan field telemetry?
Wireless telemetry nodes send sensor readings over low-power radio such as LoRaWAN to gateways and software. They cut field visits on large farms, but radio coverage, gateway backhaul, regional frequency bands and battery life must be checked for the site.

Advantages
- Low power, long battery life
- Covers large areas with few gateways
- Fewer field visits
Limitations and risks
- Coverage needs a site survey
- Battery life varies with settings
- Wrong regional band cannot be used legally
Maintenance
- Replace batteries
- Check gateway uptime
- Update firmware
Sustainability and compliance
Fewer vehicle trips; plan battery and e-waste recovery.
The radio band must match the country's allocation and local type approval.
Questions to ask in your RFQ
- What radio band and approvals apply in your country?
- How many gateways cover the farm?
- What platform stores the data?
