Abstract

This paper reports the experimental trials of IoT system for tracking and monitoring the patient with mental disorder. The system is operated on the ISM frequency band utilizing the LoRa® technology. It consists multinode LoRa® client, which is a tracking device installed on the patient side, collecting the GPS information (latitude and longitude) to be displayed on Google Maps at the server side. We have conducted trials on 3 different environment scenarios, i.e. Line of Sight (LoS), Non-Line of Sight (N-LoS), and The 'crowded area'. The assessment is conducted by collecting 23 data iterations at 10 spots area. In The LoS scenario, the maximum data transmission signal power is -73dB covering the maximum area of 38.04 meters. In the NLoS scenario, the system achieve maximum signal strength of -74dB and covering the area of 114.76 meters. In the 'crowded area' scenario, the system may achieve a maximum signal strength of -88 dB covering the area of 234.02 meters. The system has indicated a low error performance, despite the connections' lost is frequently occurred at several spots. The proposed IoT system is still need to run a major improvement by modifying its antenna system.
