Client Requirements
• Testing of the IOT sensors for the communication by
help of LoRa WAN network.
• Security among the device that are communicated
and are up to with the server of the cloud.

Project Design
The project design is based on the LoRa which is the short form of LoRaWAN
and is the type of Wide Area Network. This use the modulation in the PHY
layer as well as the MAC layer that can help in extension of the physical
communication with the compliant for IP [1].

Design Approach 1
The warehouses that are used in order to store various food items especially those that require
proper balance of the temperature and humidity requires a proper deployed warehouse that have
special design monitoring system that can monitor the climate inside the warehouse. And in case if
anything get wrong then the system is capable of raising alarms so that the precautions can be
taken by the team that is responsible.
The system that work by the help of remote works by the help of the intelligent sensors network
and they are connected with the backend of the monitoring. The following diagram can explain
more:

Design Approach 2
Sep 5, 2025 7
This is the architecture of the IoT that comprised of the four different blocks and they are:
Cloud Server
Internet of Things gateway and framework
Sensors
 Mobile application
 The cloud server helps in storing and securely
processing of the data in the cloud server that are
in the data centers [4].
 Gateway of the IoT acts as the carrier between
the internal nodes of the network and the external
internet node. They transmit the gathered data to
the internet infrastructure.
 Sensors helps in sniffing the data and
information from the surroundings and gather the
data.
 Mobile applications are used so as to provide the
control to the end users.

Method to be used for MN692
Method that is used here is the first design approach that is based
on the warehouse environment control using the sensors and
maintain the balance in order to keep the food products fresh and
edible [3]. The system is capable of raising alarm by sensing any
kind of danger through which the monitoring team can handle the
situation on time.

Limitations
There are various limitations as well that can lead to severe
issues like:
 Some sensors may get defected and they cannot detect the
unusual behavior in the warehouse which can lead to heavy
losses [2].
 In case of even small unusual movements, the sensors may ring
the alarm through which emergency team may reach out and
finds minute problems.
 Other problems may include the poor detection of the sensors.

Conclusion
 The system is completely wireless that makes it easy to
deploy.
 The communication is completely bi-directional.
 The sensors that are present may cover large area in kilometers.
 IoT applications and M2M are used easily.
 The cost is quite low for developing the connections.
 Power means are low and the device batteries are long lasting
up to two to five years.
 One LoRa device of the gateway handles many end devices
and nodes.
