Abstract

Internet of Things, IoT, is a promising methodology that has been increasing over the last years. It can be used to allow the connection and exchange data with other devices and systems over the Internet. One of the IoT connection protocols is the LoRaWAN, which has several advantages but has a low bandwidth and limited data transfer. There is a necessity of optimising the data transfer between devices. Some sensors have a 10 or 12 bits resolution, while LoRaWAN owns 8 bits or multiples slots of transmission remaining unused bits. This paper addresses a communication optimisation for wireless sensors resorting to encoding and decoding procedures. This approach is applied and validated on the real scenario of a wildfire detection system.
