| Abstract | <p>The LoRa is a novel radio communication technology<br /> providing low power and a high range of data transmission.<br /> The LoRa transmission may be used for a low-cost localization<br /> to estimate the network nodes’ location. Some recent research<br /> showed that the location could be found with reasonable accuracy,<br /> with median error as low as tens of meters. Still, such results are<br /> achieved in a controlled environment with low interferences. We<br /> first evaluate the LoRa localization using an extensive data set<br /> of a telemetric network of a few thousand devices. We show that<br /> although the direct positioning based on trilateration provides<br /> limited accuracy, the measurement of LoRa transmission may<br /> be successfully used to evaluate the credibility of location information.<br /> The information about which gateways received the data<br /> and the RSSI measurements allow us to verify if the potential<br /> coordinates of a location are accurate. We propose a metric for<br /> location verification and estimate its credibility on a sample of<br /> measurements from the LoRa telemetry network.</p> |
