Abstract

Nowadays, the Internet of Things (IoT) has been growing continuously along with different networks providing connectivity methods for IoT devices. In this context, LoRa networks, or LoRa mesh networks, have been developed for long-range, low-power communication for sensors. This paper studies an application of image transmission over the LoRa mesh network by considering different images and energy consumption during a series of experiments. The experimental results show a high packet delivery ratio via the network (over 90%). In addition, the experiments also show the possibility of transferring 500 images taken by battery-powered ESP32-CAM with a frame size of \(480\times 320\) and a quality level of 30.
