In this presentation, Yang Wang of the Purdue University Open Ag Technologies and Systems (OATS) Center reviews options around rural wireless communications. The work provides a three-part tutorial for 1) understanding RF essentials, 2) visualizing key RF parameters, and 3) using information from datasheets to compare and select 4 wireless module/protocols (Bluetooth Low Energy, ZigBee, LoRa, and WiFi) based on a real-world scenario.

This talk was delivered remotely to the Mid-Year AgGateway Meeting on July 8, 2020.
