- If on TTN
Will massively breach TTN FUP! - How bad will depend on message size and SF used. Even smallish packets (Say 10 bytes) on SF7 you need to think >3mins! Even Zero bytes means >2mins see(*) https://avbentem.github.io/airtime-calculator/ttn/eu868/10
- For any given payload size raw vs edge makes no difference as Tx time same, and indeed even if averaging and sending other data elasticity of message size doesnt always mean larger packet = longer message as there is a stair case efffect on Tx time which has been explored before (GIYF) again exoeriment with theoretical values in above link.
Obviously time to updated value is longer (as is time to 1st value) if you average then send.
- Feels like you are rehashing a question! Definite feeling of De Ja Vu! review what we said here (thread not just post)
How to measure packet delay or latency? - #18 by prncssgarma
(*) where I also already gave you the airtime calculator link!
If you want to come at this anew then you need to be very detailed and very specific wrt the LoRaWAN or TTN aspect you want to get help with - as for the processing you do as noted before:
“What you want to know is how long that data processing takes as part of your edge computing process (perhaps detecting thresholds, tracking averages, sending an alarm vs data, running a machine learning algorythm, or what ever)… only you can determine that, no one here on the Forum…”
Also as this is a ‘project’ for you (assumed student!) you need to show what you have discovered/researched…we won’t do your homework for you!
