LoRaWAN sensor: energy analysis and modeling

Nowadays, with the increasing growth of the Internet of Things (IoT), where reliable sensors are needed to operate for extended periods, the issue of energy consumption efficiency has become crucial. To address this, it is suggested to utilize low-power network (LPN) technology for IoT sensor networks. Additionally, a detailed analysis of sensor node performance and a comprehensive understanding of energy consumption sources in the sensor are necessary to tackle the energy management challenge. Therefore, it is highly valuable to have a model that can analyze the performance of the sensor node in various operation modes. In this article, we analyze the impact of various parameters on sensor node performance and present a comprehensive model for the sensor node energy consumption in the network based on long-range/long-range wide-area network (LoRa/LoRaWAN) technologies. This model enables the analysis of network performance and the estimation of energy consumption in different modes of the sensor node. The model can be practically utilized in the optimal design of sensor nodes in IoT networks based on LoRa/LoRaWAN technology, with a focus on increasing sensor lifetime.
