Resumen

This paper proposes the use of Long Range Winde Area Network (LoRaWAN) technology as an alternative to the General Packet Radio Service and Global System for Mobile Communications (GPRS/GSM) communication for the university bus real time tracking as a solution to improve the mobility service and the student's time organization. This solution consists of the design and implementation of a prototype and a web app where users can view the location of the bus in real time. The prototype consists of an Arduino UNO development board for control and instructions, LoRaWAN IoT technology for wireless communication is used through the RAK 811 development board, which is connected to the Arduino UNO as a shield, a Global Positioning System (GPS) module, Neo6M to obtain the location, a battery for the autonomy of the prototype as well as other components that provide protection, the possibility of recharging the prototype and charging indicators, as well as the web app was implemented with Vue.js for frontend and Firebase for backend development.
