Question 1
a. A network of items(things) that enables the internet to reach out into the real world of
physical objects with minimal human intervention.
b.
Power Consumption
Range
Bandwidth
(i)Power Consumption
Power Consumption affects IOT system by simply illustrating for IOT devices to carry how
much power, in order for them to function.
(ii)Range
It affects IOT by considering the distance between the devices that will communicate and
transfer data across long distances.
(iii)Bandwidth
Bandwidth affects how much data will be sent, is it little or a lot of data that will be
transmitted from one device to another.
Agriculture
Uses Low-Power Wide Area Network (LPWAN) which is suitable for Agriculture as it has the
Range that has maximum of 25 miles. They have low bandwidth (transmits small packets of
data) Battery life should be very long lasting. Longer range efficiency for Rural environment.
Help farmers in Soil Monitoring of its conditions (soil moisture and temperature)
Mining
In the mining industry
Every smart device that you have home will be controlled by one device (cellphone). It
notifies you with power consumption. The connection of these smart devices reduces
involvedness of you and can interconnect together to satisfy the humans needs without
their intervention.
