A Prototype Development of the Smart Mousetrap System Equipped with LoRa

In this study, a prototype of a smart mousetrap system is presented, which features that the portable remote devices based on a LoRa module plus SOC for Bluetooth attempt to lure rodents into a trap and then inform the base station. Mealtimes, all remote devices transmit information on including sensors, the battery status and the GPS coordinates to the base station. Preliminary experiments demonstrate that the system has 5260 meters long distance transmission ability under None-Line-of-Sight (NLOS) conditions.
