LoRaWAN® Child Safety Monitoring System for Mongolia Mountains

Children are not only the hope of every family, but also the future pillars of the nation. Their safety is not merely a concern; it is a paramount and critical issue demanding our utmost attention and proactive measures. In this world filled with uncertainties and potential dangers, safeguarding our children through reliable child safety monitoring system has become an indispensable task for society as a whole.

Challenge

Surrounded by several mountains, a city in Mongolia faces a persistent and challenging issue – poor signal strength for communication purposes. These mountains act as natural barriers to severely hinder the propagation of communication signals. Such signal weakness extends for far beyond the inconvenience of dropped calls or delayed messages. It poses a child safety concern, especially when it comes to the well-beings of children on their ways between their school and home.

These ways often lead them across winding and quiet mountain pathways, which offer little respite from potential dangers. When a child encounters an emergency, the ability to quickly and efficiently get help through a reliable monitoring system will greatly change results. However, the weak signal strength in this area makes it exceedingly difficult for the child to make crucial call for assistance. They may find themselves helpless while their parents remain oblivious to their situations. In such an unstable and unpredictable environment, a stable and reliable communication link is not just a convenience, but an urgent necessity.

Solution

To effectively tackle the signal-related issues, a LoRaWAN® child safety monitoring system specifically tailored for Mongolia mountains has been introduced. Every child has one compact panic button to hang on. With it at their fingertips, every child gains the ability to be under real-time monitoring. It is as if there is a virtual guardian always keeping an eye on them. These panic buttons are capable of receiving precise location information from satellites. Once the location data is acquired, it will be transmitted seamlessly via a low-frequency network built by municipal administration.

One of the most outstanding features of this child safety monitoring system is its complete independence from any cellular network. In an area where signal strength is often unreliable, LoRaWAN® technology will ensure a stable and uninterrupted connection, regardless of the fluctuations in cellular coverage.

In addition, these devices are also equipped with emergency communication buttons. When children find themselves in danger, simply press the emergency button will send out an SOS signal. Travelling through the stable municipal network, such information will reach the phones of their parents. Moreover, integrated with client’s software platform, the device allows parents to receive real-time updates about their children’s current positions, but also supports the checking of historical positions. This means parents are able to trace movements of their children at any time, giving them a complete picture of where and when their children have been, providing an extra layer of security and peace of mind.
