The application of the Internet of Things (IoT) is increasing rapidly in Indonesia because it has the potential to be used for various business purposes. One of the most popular use cases of IoT is for the measurement of electricity, water, gas, and fuel distributions, also known as Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI). This paper aims to plan the LoRaWAN technology-based IoT network for AMI services in one of the major cities in Indonesia - Surabaya and surrounding towns because it has very high market potential and many industrial areas. AMI is an integrated system that allows communication between customers and utilities with the control that can be done remotely, so the role of connectivity is essential to guarantee the AMI service system. From the coverage and capacity analysis, it concludes that the optimal gateway requirements for each region were eight gateways for Surabaya with Spreading Factor (SF) values of 9, ten gateways for Sidoarjo City with SF values of 11, and 13 gateways for Gresik City with an SF value of 12. From the simulations carried out, it can conclude that for the Surabaya can be served at the level of receiver sensitivity > -129 dBm, Sidoarjo with a level of receiver sensitivity > -134.5 dBm, while for the Gresik region is > -137 dBm. The amount of the receiver sensitivity level mostly influences by the value of the SF while the best average signal level is -80.67 dBm, -83.10 dBm, and -83.52 dBm for the Surabaya, Sidoarjo and Gresik regions. For the average value of throughput distribution is 21.85 kbps for the city of Surabaya, 21.56 kbps for the city of Sidoarjo, and 20.7 kbps in the city of Gresik. For SNR values, the average value of Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) is -0.2 dB for Surabaya, -4.34 dB for Sidoarjo, and -6.84 dB for Gresik. |
