hyper-connected society with its Cloud and big data technology. unlicensed band of ISM band.
To connect objects, low range and low power communication
technology was needed, therefore, RoLaWAN technology was Accordingly, using IoT and LPWAN technology, we are
developed. We suggest object tracking and managing system going to design and realize bicycle location management
based on RoLaWAN technology. Firstly, required service of the system and shows its efficiency.

will be designed and realized. Also, we will present efficiency of
RoLaWAN technology’s application.

I. INTRODUCTION
LoRa is IoT optimized communication technology, which is
one of LPWAN technologies. Unlike other communication

devices of IoT. 500m, we checked PDR depending on mode 1, 5, and 10.
If near field communication technologies such as BLE and
Zigbee for smart form and smart building are applied, person
who offers IoT service needs to undergo complex procedure of
smart home gateway and smartphone. But LPWAN solves this
problem but to connect directly. This technology is useful in
outdoor application area where a number of devices are
required.
LPWAN technology has been through the standardization
process as it becomes commercialized like other technologies
in ICT area. The technology that already starts to serve is
UNB(Ultra Narrow Band). The French company, Sigfox, has
started the service and ETSI, the European standards institute
has started to standardize it in the name of LTN(Low
Throughput Networks). The LoRaWAN developed by
