Geo-fencing location tracking system using IOT and LORA LPWAN for Covid-19 mandatory self-quarantine monitoring

Initially, quarantine for COVID-19 patients was carried out at specific quarantine centers; however, with large increases in COVID-19 individuals taxing the health system, a self-quarantine at home system was introduced. Nevertheless, self-quarantine at home creates other issues such as non-complian...

Research and development Initially, quarantine for COVID-19 patients was carried out at specific quarantine centers; however, with large increases in COVID-19 individuals taxing the health system, a self-quarantine at home system was introduced.

In this paper, we propose CAGE (COVID-19 Adherence via Geo-fencing E-tracking), an electronic geo-fencing location tracking system using the Internet of Things (IoT) and Long Range Low Power Wide Area Network (LoRa LPWAN) to monitor and ensure adherence to the COVID-19 mandatory self-quarantine at home directive.
