Introduction

Purpose of the requirements document

This Software Requirements Specification (SRS) identifies the requirements for project UltraTeamMV project. It will present our solution's functionalities and problem solved but also list our system requirements.

Scope of the product

This project mainly consists of a web application development. This app should allow a hikers team to localise each other in real time. It should be really easy to add new members (Numeric code, QRCode, NFC, …). The system should work whether or not there is a 2G/3G/4G or LoRa connection.

Definitions, acronyms and abbreviations

  • LoRa = Long Range : Low powered radio based communication technology
  • LoRaWAN = Long Range Wide Area Networks : LoRa overlayer to ease (& securise) LoRa communication implementation
  • LPWAN = Low Powered Wide Area Networks
  • BLE = Bluetooth Low Energy
  • GPS = Global Positioning System

General description

Product perspective

The product is supposed to be an open source. It is a web based system implementing client-server model. The UltraTeamMV System provides simple mechanism for outdoor geolocation in white & gray network areas.

Product functions

This system should allow low energy cost localisation.

It should be decentralized as 2G/3G/4G network is sporadic in such environnement.

It should also centralize all data to allow sending it to appropriate services (rescue team for instance).

User characteristics

Hikers team, comfortable with using a smartphone but not a technology expert.

No financial criteria other than having a smartphone as an ESP32 costs about 5€.

About age group, anyone that is comfortable with using a smartphone (hence ~15-70).

General constraints

The system should work whether or not there is a 2G/3G/4G connection

Limited localisation accuracy : GPS.

Assumptions and dependencies

As few environnement assumptions as possible.

A team needs at least 1 smartphone (with GPS connection) and 1 ESP32 per hiker.

Specific requirements, covering functional, non-functional and interface requirements

This section is supposed to describe two types of requirements :

  • System requirements

A structured document setting out detailed descriptions of the system’s functions, services and operational constraints. Defines what should be implemented so may be part of a contract between client and contractor.

  • User requirements

Statements in natural language plus diagrams of the services the system provides and its operational constraints. Written for customers.

Those user requirements are described in use case section of the UML page of the project.
