Closed loop tracking
summary
Claim: LoRaWAN can do robust closed loop tracking indoors and outdoors using practical techniques and cheap hardware. Demonstrations deploy gateways and resolve labels using RSSI triangulation, Wi‑Fi sniffing and GNSS‑sniffing, sometimes augmented with BLE beacons. Devices send occasional fixes (one per hour or per day) to keep multi‑year battery life; dense sites need many gateways/beacons and calibration. A 2.4 GHz LoRa option solves world roaming at the cost of range. Multiple demos are built and shown working.
