Abstract

In the industrial sector, the number of employees is increasing from time to time. Therefore, it is impossible to track the location of all employees in the same building at the same time as they are placed in different sections. In fact, monitoring all employees at the same time may disrupt the progress of the work, thus decreasing productivity. The objective of this project is to develop a Real-Time Fog-Based Human Tracking and Monitoring System to determine the location of the employees in a real-time implementation. Based on the literature review, Long Range (LoRa) communication consumes low power with high coverage range besides requires low cost for deployment. In this work, a Received Signal Strength Indicator-based (RSSI-based) positioning method is used to measure the power level at the receiver to determine the location of the employees. Different scenarios have been conducted to demonstrate the precision and the reliability of the developed system considering the size of the test-bed implementation, the environment of the test-bed implementation related to the obstacles in the room, and the location of the employee related to the height of where the nodes are located. The results show that the developed system has high reliability and performance in terms of precision.
