Briefly describe what your intended solution would look like. How will the end result (product) work? How does this offer a solution to the problem?
Current sensors have a LoRaWAN module as transceiver unit for wireless communication in and around greenhouses. The idea is to replace this transceiver by a 5G module and using a 5G base station somewhere in the greenhouse.
5G networks have the capability to handle a significantly larger number of connected devices compared to LoRaWAN. This means that when it comes to updating the nodes within a greenhouse, 5G can efficiently handle the task, allowing for simultaneous updates of a large number of nodes. This is particularly beneficial in greenhouses where numerous sensors and devices need to be monitored and controlled.

5G networks have a larger coverage range compared to LoRaWAN, typically reaching distances of 5 to 10 kilometers. Although the coverage range may be reduced within the confines of a greenhouse, it is still advantageous as a single 5G base station can cover all the sensors within the greenhouse. This eliminates the need for multiple base stations or repeaters, simplifying the network infrastructure.

By utilizing a "Global module," which supports multiple frequency bands and network protocols, it is possible to design a single hardware module that can be used worldwide. This means that the same 5G module can be deployed in greenhouses regardless of their geographical location, simplifying logistics and reducing costs associated with maintaining different hardware designs for different regions.

5G operates in lower frequency bands, typically ranging from 700 to 2100 MHz. This lower frequency range is advantageous for RF (Radio Frequency) penetration within a greenhouse environment. The signals can more effectively propagate through the walls and structures
of the greenhouse, ensuring better coverage and reliable communication between the 5G nodes.
