Abstract

With the advancement of technologies and the development of mobile communications, it is necessary to implement the 5th generation (5G) mobile network and all the challenges that this entails. The Internet of Things (IoT) allows operators to provide all kinds of different services in addition to voice and video communications. Smart Agriculture is one of the sectors that benefits from IoT where satellites play an important role in this type of communication. In this work, a proposal is made for an Intelligent Agriculture service that favors the development of tobacco plantations in Cuba, using satellite links through the Intelsat 37e satellite. In addition, calculations are made to verify the feasibility of these links. The satellite link is feasible throughout the country so it can be used in other tobacco crops or others in general.
