Every day of the week, wireless communication is almost all around us. The Internet of Things (IoT) is a standard protocol used to describe the rapidly advancing technology in which almost every electronic device is or may be connected to the Internet. These electronic gadgets constantly provide data signals to the gateways, which satellites such as those in Low Earth Orbit may transmit. Because of these networks’ limited resources and the IoT, these transactions must be completed with the least amount of latency and data loss possible. We also analyze the performance implications of implementing RF-based powering for such a network. The techniques presented in this paper may benefit the scientific community and industry in general when it comes to the dynamic distributed parameter allocation methodology for IoT network devices. We will also discuss how research on animals and the natural environment has been impacted by IoT breakthroughs, in particular, animal sensors’ limits and incapacity to broadcast from everywhere. Our analysis illustrates the most effective data transmission technique and establishes the bounds of these restrictions. Furthermore, the physics of the RF channel plays a critical role in the uncertainty of the channel as well as the amount of energy harvested. By employing simulation based on the physics of the RF channel, the article shows the performance of the system considering both the uncertainty of data arrival as well as the variability of the channel. The findings of the simulation show that the devices consume less energy overall as the signal-to-noise ratio rises. Furthermore, a timing factor of 10–15% is shown to be effective in maintaining a constant mean rate and increasing the energy efficiency of the system.
