The proposed system allows real-time visualization of the tracking nodes in a web interface following a low-cost and low-complexity design approach. The cost of each tracking node and the gateway were USD $39.38 and USD $28.00, respectively. Regarding its performance, the energy autonomy of each tracking node was 270.6 hours with maximum coverture of 896 meters under open field conditions, which is hard reduced to 114 meters under indoor conditions.</p>}, number={7}, journal={IEEE Latin America Transactions}, author={Carvajal Acosta, Juan Pablo and Urbina Mojica, Robert Alexis and Baron Mosquera, Luis Carlos David and Paez-Rueda, Carlos and Fajardo, Arturo}, year={2022}, month={Jun.}, pages={1075–1084} }
